Arch Linux can't recognize some Android phones

As the title says, some Android phones are completely invisible to Arch Linux. lsblk shows no sign that there is some other drive connected to the computer, and phone only charges even if it is connected as MTP/PTP. On some phones "USB memory" option is faded, and some do not show it at all. I have installed libmtp, mtpfsm jmtpfs, go-mtpfs-git and simple-mtpfs. All phones normally connect to Windows.

Re: Arch Linux can't recognize some Android phones

What are the phones? What versions of Android?

Is there information in the Arch Linux logs / journal?

Re: Arch Linux can't recognize some Android phones

Okay, I got somewhere following this tutorial (USB Debugging must be enabled). Before I read this I didn't know that you connect using mtp as a program, I thought that it was only "driver" or something similiar, and you plug in phone and mount and use it's partitions like it's a USB drive (because some Android phones literally were behaving like USB drives in that sense).

Anyway, I still have problems. I followed the tutorial mentioned above and these are the messages I got:

Re: Arch Linux can't recognize some Android phones

Quite a lot of Android phones have buggy MTP implementations, I don't bother with it anymore and just use AirDroid instead.

No, it didn't "fix" anything. It just shifted the brokeness one space to the right. - jasonwryan

What are the phones? What versions of Android?

Is there information in the Arch Linux logs / journal?

journalctl -u mtp is empty.

Re: Arch Linux can't recognize some Android phones

If it matters, I just tried the same phone on Ubuntu and the phone is shown on the desktop, but it's completely empty (not really, Ubuntu just shows it like that).
libmtp versions:

libmtp-common/artful,now 1.1.13-1 all [installed]
libmtp-runtime/artful,now 1.1.13-1 i386 [installed]

Re: Arch Linux can't recognize some Android phones

(because some Android phones literally were behaving like USB drives in that sense).

Yes they did until android 4.something, then they all became mtp devices after that version, could not treat them like a usb device anymore.

The simplest and most reliable thing I have found to mount android devices.
Mount it, do stuff, umount it. done

Then on version 7 I think, you have to confirm on the android device itself whenever trying to mount it.

[rant]Sure wish that we could have an unlocked bootloader from purchase, linux phone, with a shell, apps made in C, bash scriptable, with normal root and users, kernel, systemland, userland etc. With standardized processor language that a C compiler could be made that would work on more than 3 phones. Another words a hand sized PC with a dialer. I would by one, even if it was $100 more.
Not one that needs to be rooted by a third party app, runs everything in java, needs an app for everything you do like a toy, that you can't trust at all. Seems like one is being worked on, thought we would have one way before now.[/rant]

Quite a lot of Android phones have buggy MTP implementations

Yes, not just MTP.

Re: Arch Linux can't recognize some Android phones

I've had no problems with mine, provided the phone was properly configured.

Having said that, I have an S4 that won't boot (software issue) with a broken volume switch, and debugging not enabled before it broke, that I have no idea how to get into to fix (other than a hardware repair), but the fault is the phone, not Arch.

Ryzen 5900X 12 core/24 thread - RTX 3090 FE 24 Gb, Asus B550-F Gaming MB, 128Gb Corsair DDR4, Fractal Design Define 7 XL, 5 HD (2 NvME PCI, 4SSD) + 1 x optical.
