Not sure if it's the correct version, but I downloaded this file: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/libm/libmtp/libmtp9_1.1.3-24-g9aca343-3ubuntu1_i386.deb
and installed it, and mtp-detect still gives this with a Samsung Galaxy S III GT-I9300: $ mtp-detect libmtp version: 1.1.3 Listing raw device(s) Device 0 (VID=04e8 and PID=6860) is a Samsung GT P7310/P7510/N7000/I9070/I9100/I9300 Galaxy Tab 7.7/10.1/S2/S3/Nexus/Note/Y.
