Mounted phone shows as camera

Mon Apr 01, 2013 10:29 pm
Hi, when I mount my S3 4G phone it shows as a camera so I can not move files to it, is there a way to mount it differently?

Which version of KDE are you using?

You probably need to change the mode your phone is exposing itself as. In this instance, it is exposing a PTP device, where it needs to expose either a mass storage or MTP device for you to get the desired effect.

I would recommend installing the MTP kioslave (if your system does not have it installed, and it is available from your distribution repositories) and attempting access by browsing to mtp:/ in Dolphin or Konqueror.
