Need help mounting Nokia phone in file manager [SOLVED]

Hello,

I've got a Nokia XpressMusic that I simply want to mount and browse in the file manager to manually add/remove some content. Since it's a camera AND an mp3 player, I'm having some difficulties. When I plug it in (running Gnome), I get a popup stating that it's detected a camera and then it mounts with gphoto2. There is an option to browse the files in the file manager instead of opening gThumb or whatever, but there seems to be issues writing to the disk in this mode.

I can hotplug plain usb flash drives with no problem. They mount in /media/disk (vs gphoto2://blahblah) and I can read/write just fine. Any thoughts on how I can get the system to treat it just like a plain usb drive?

Thanks!

Swill

And you ate the whole... wheel of cheese? How'd you do that? Heck, I'm not even mad; that's amazing.

i assume your connecting it via usb? if so does your phone come up with a few different connection options (eg.. pc suite, image print, media player ,data transfer) if so try data transfer

Oh wow, I'm a total phone noob. Yeah, there was totally multiple USB options in the settings on the phone. I selected Data Storage and now I'm in business. Thanks for the tip!
