[Bug 903422] Re: Mount / Provide access to Android 4.x (Ice Cream Sandwich and above) MTP devices

[Dmitrijs Ledkovs]

The libmtp status fix released is bogus, as libmtp does not use
launchpad for bug tracking, they use source forge and there is no bug
link.

** Description changed:

- Android 4 will not support anymore usb mass-storage protocol. However,
- there is an easy way to access the files on such devices for advanced
- users using mtp-tools and adjusted udev-rules:
- http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/12/how-to-connect-your-android-ice-
- cream-sandwich-phone-to-ubuntu-for-file-access/ . Ubuntu Precise
- Pangolin (12.04) should be prepared for Android ICS devices and grant
- easy access to music and pictures and other files to all users.
+ If your device is not supported please open a new bug specifying:
+ * device in question (make / model / release)
+ * output of `mtp-detect` when the device is attached
+ * output of `lsusb` when the device is attached
+ 
+ This bug will be a catch all for recent Samsung Nexus & Nexus 7, or
+ please comment what other recent Andorid 4.x devices are affected.
+ 
+ Yes there is a lag in providing support for the most recent devices. As
+ soon as the fixes are available, SRUs will follow.

** Summary changed:

- Mount / Provide access to Android 4.x (Ice Cream Sandwich and above) MTP devices
+ Ubuntu does not work with Samsung Galaxy phones (needs update to libmtp)
