I want to import / transfer photos from my Honor Magic5 Pro (Android 13). The
connection is established via USB / MTP connection (tried picture connection as
well with same results). Windows recognizes the phone and I am able to manually
transfer the files via file explorer. The Import camera dialog shows nothing
and I am unable to add the correct camera settings manually.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. connect phone via USB / choose file or photo transfer on phone to establish
connection
2. open digiKam / Import cameras shows nothing
3. add camera manually / type name / usb connection / mount point dialog
doesn't show path to phone
OBSERVED RESULT
- phone doesn't show up automatically
- mount point dialog cannot navigate to phone / MTP-device (virtual) folder
("This PC\PhoneName\Internal Storage\DCIM" or similar)
EXPECTED RESULT
The Phone should be autodetected or at least it should be possible to configure
the camera manually. I would like to use the import dialog directly instead of
copying the files manually via file explorer.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Honor phones show an additional CD drive ("Honor Suite") after connecting the
phone on windows. This CD drive gets a drive letter as well. The phone itself
is shown under "This PC" only.
