'The process for the mtp protocol died unexpectedly'

As you can read from the title, I have problem to mount Android device in KDE. I have installed kio-mtp, and maybe it is working out of the box for other android phones out there except for mine (HTC One X).

The device mounted, but when I try to transfer files (copy, paste, cut), it throwing up an error which is 'The process for the mtp protocol died unexpectedly'.

Can somebody tell me if I'm missing something? Did I have to install any other tools to get the job done?

Re: 'The process for the mtp protocol died unexpectedly'

I'm having a similar (maybe the same) problem. I have an International Samsung Galaxy S3 (i9300). Same symptons on both stock ROM and Cyanogenmod 10.1

Try debugging the kio-slave:
Run

kdebugdialog --fullmode

and verify that kio (ID 7000) has all its outputs set to Shell. (should be the default)
Then run

kdeinit4

in a terminal and leave that terminal open. The debug messages will be displayed in that terminal.
Open dolphin and try to create a folder/copy a file/etc. on your phone and watch the debug output.

Mine is:

Device 0 (VID=04e8 and PID=685c) is a Samsung Galaxy models (MTP+ADB).

Re: 'The process for the mtp protocol died unexpectedly'

I've been struggling  quite a lot here with MTP on a samsung tab 10.1. Seems that mtp lib is to old from a gentoo discussion. http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-92 … rt-25.html
I also found a solution there by using airdroid which makes it possible to share files between android and linux easily and gives remote control of the android device amazing. I will look later at mtp related stuff but I think that mtp lib 1.5 is too old and should be updated.

Re: 'The process for the mtp protocol died unexpectedly'

It seems that disabling USB debugging mode fixed my problem. Weird.

Re: 'The process for the mtp protocol died unexpectedly'

I had the similar problem when I use USB 3.0 port. Changing to use USB 2.0 port, it works. Seems to be a problem of mtp supporting USB 3.0? Guess

Re: 'The process for the mtp protocol died unexpectedly'

oracleyue, this thread is more than a year old. Its highly unlikely that the op is still looking for answers. But thanks for a potential solution.

I'll close this thread now to avoid further necros.
