Hi,
I'm on Linux Mint Tricia 19.3, Nemo 4.4.3. samsung J3 phone.
Worked good for me following Jeff suggestion (post #36). Install libmtp 1.1.16.
Before, Nemo would take forever building dir of DCIM (if even returning), now
it is ok. I can transfer files, delete, whatever, NO root needed. I confirm
that : USB debuging have NOTHING to do with speed or access. Works, either way.
Phone is almost as fast as a USB key(little slow with huge folders > 500
entries)
Thanks to all, it was so frustrating. I noticed that sometimes there is a
"ghost" entry in
/run/user/1000/gvfs$ ls
'mtp:host=%5Busb%3A003%2C015%5D' >>That is a correct entry.
BUT:
-One have to unlock phone screen BEFORE connecting to PC.
These are the console commands that worked for installing 1.1.16: (I
haven't try 1.1.17...)
sudo apt install build-essential pkg-config wget libusb-1.0-0-dev
libusb-dev
wget
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/libmtp/libmtp/1.1.16/libmtp-1.1.16.tar.gz
tar xzf libmtp-1.1.16.tar.gz
cd libmtp-1.1.16
./configure
make
sudo make install
Before I reinstall mtp-tools (1.1.13-1), maybe have something to do ?
Best regards,
Robert

Title:
Regression: MTP not working/very slow
Status in libmtp:
New
Status in gvfs package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Hi, unfortunately (for me) MTP android devices no more work on Ubuntu
18.04.
I have used MTP on 16.04 without problems, but on 18.04 it does not
work. When I connect my Android devices (Samsung A5 and Samsung J3)
and I try to list directories with many files (e.g. /DCIM/Camera) the
window hangs until I disconnect the device. Same issue if I try to
post the command "ls /var/run/1000/gvfs/<MTP-FOLDER>".
I have installed Ubuntu 18.04 on two different machines - an older HP
laptop and a recent DELL laptop - and the issue is present on the all
of them.
I suspect a defect on the "libmtp". I tried many alternative solutions
suggested by the net (e.g. jmtpfs and so on) but anyone worked.
That's all!
