I use KDE Connect and it took a long time to get it work - and it
still doesnt always work "right". I can send to my pc fine, 50/50
on sending to phone, using USB Developer mode I kinda got that
stable at 50%. Ive not been able to use anything else to connect
to or with my phone other than KDE Connect so Im watching this
thread closely to see what others are doing.
