I got my Android paired but it won't Mount when I click "Mount". I even have sshfs installed & it still won't mount. How do I fix this?

Are you talking about KDE Connect? Please be a bit more specific about your system.


Running Kubuntu 22.10 with Plasma 5.26.3, Frameworks 5.100.0, Qt 5.15.6, kernel 5.19.0-23 on Ryzen 5 4600H, AMD Renoir, X11
FWIW: it's always useful to state the exact Plasma version (+ distribution) when asking questions, makes it easier to help ...

You didn't answer my first question. Is this about KDE Connect?

Oh, sorry, It's about KDE Connect & GS Connect. KDE Connect seems to work fine but on my Ubuntu, GS Connect's mounting feature won't work. How do I fix that?

Apart from installing (using) KDE Connect, you might also consider installing the package "mtp-tools" as it is handy for transferring files mainly used on USB devices (Assuming your Android phone is using a USB cable that is!).

Open the Konsole and type (For Ubuntu/Debian based systems):

Code: Select all
sudo apt install mtp-tools


Have a good one everyone. ;D ;D ;D


Running Kubuntu on two computers (one dual boot and one as single OS), were it not for gaming; I would ditch Winblows completely!.

Thanks. Exactly what I was looking for.
