[Bug 903422] Re: Ubuntu does not work with Samsung Galaxy phones ( Unable to open raw device 0)

[Dan Näsman]

There are ONE POINT THREE million devices activated each day that are
not "plug and play" with Ubuntu!

I have been frustrated with the lack of Android 4+ (MTP) plug and play
for some time and I have tried gmtp and go-mtpfs but none have been
stable. I handle my family's 7 android devices and the proposed
workarounds works now and then for some of the devices. Last time that I
needed to offload 9 GB of pictures from a Galaxy SII phone I had to
revert to a virtual Windows 7:(

I propose to make MTP "Plug & Play" in Ubuntu, current LTS and future
releases.

Bug description:
  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

  Yes there is a lag in providing support for the most recent devices.
