Mounting Samsung phone with USB
I have a Samsung Intensity II U460. When I plug in the USB cable it is detected, but won't mount. KDE shows a notification and I can transfer pictures with Digikam and music with Amarok. It shows up in lsusb with the following information.

Thanks for any help.

Re: Mounting Samsung phone with USB
if you can transfer music with amarok it is mounted. There are parts of the filesystem on the phone you can not access unless you have a rooted phone.

Re: Mounting Samsung phone with USB
If it is mounted, where is it mounted to? It's not in /media and the disk doesn't appear in fdisk. I'm trying to transfer files to and from it directly. It does have the feature of functioning as a mass storage device, and some sites mention opening it in Windows Explorer, although I have been unable to test this myself.

Re: Mounting Samsung phone with USB
try running mount to see what mounts are set-up.
dmesg should tell you the device file, too.
Is it an Android device? If so, is it the same as this issue?

Re: Mounting Samsung phone with USB
"MTP Device" is the important info here - it's Media Transfer Protocol, and its not mountable in the usual way. Digikam and Amarok support MTP.
If you want to access it as if it was a block device, try mtpfs in the AUR.
