[Solved] Can't access the internal storage of my Galaxy S8

It says on my phone's screen that I need to have android file transfer or samsung smart switch on my Mac OS computer.


But... I'm not on a Mac OS X computer, I'm on Arch Linux. So anyone has any idea of how to fix this problem?

(And sorry for any english errors, my english is kinda rusty and it isn't my first language tho)

ADB is another option.

Installed libmtp, ran mtp-detect on terminal and it worked flawlessly!

Thank you Anarchist!

I suggest AirMore or AirDroid as the simplest and easiest to use solution. Drag and drop files directly from a PC without a cable.
