Does anybody have any devices that support MTP? (later Android versions do).

I've built the libmtp tools - you'll need libusb.library if you don't have it - but on my Nexus 7 they pause for ages recursing silently into several thousand directories:
http://homepage.ntlworld.com/cdyoung/tmp/mtp.lha

Just wondering if this was just me, the device, or some ridiculous design flaw in libmtp.

My phone and tablet do but I will not be able to test them until Sunday since I am currently away from home. I didn't know it was supported but now I do, I want to give it a go.

I have an HP slate 7 (I know, it's crap but I needed the long battery life) using android 4.1.1.
mtp-detect just reports no device found, the tablet reports it's connected in PTP mode as a camera.

@Severin

If you tap on the USB connection notification, it should give you an option to switch between PTP and MTP.

I can test it later on my Galaxy Tab 3

I just need to know what I am testing for :)

Connect it up.
Run mtp-detect from the Shell.
Output will be something like "Found MTP device: Samsung Galaxy Tab". A few lines later it will say something about Android bugs.
At this point I have to wait about ten minutes before anything else is printed (it is recursing through every single directory on the device). <--- I'm interested to know if this stage is slow for everybody.

I should probably try libmtp under Linux to see if it is similarly rubbish there.

I don't get any notifications any more maybe an update killed it because I used to get them. I suspect USB is only for charging on this crap tablet, I've tried a couple of USD diagnostic / settings apps and they just sit there doing nothing, they don't detect anything.

@Chris
I just got a DSI error.

@Severin

The notification is hidden here (Android 4.3), needs a swipe down on the notification area and appears in the list.

@yssing

Crashlog? Although I'm not sure how useful that'll be.

I've got both 4.1.3 and 4.0.4 versions of Android with a phone + tablet that I will test with

I have a 2.3 android phone I can try and I am sure my girlfriends android phone is newer, maybe I can try it on that one.

If I choose to ignore the DSI error, the program continues, but with no connection.

@Chris

Yeah, I saw them a few times when I first got the tablet but haven't had any for several weeks and iirc there was aa android update around the same time or it could be I'm using a different lead, maybe the incredibly cheap USB F to micro USB M lead I got from china is borked, charging works which is what I need but no other usb devices work with it.

I know HP cut corerners with the tablet, no hdmi output etc. maybe it boesn't support mice or keyboards either.

@yssing

2.3 supports Mass Storage instead of MTP.

Apparently you can enable mass storage on newer ones with the USB debugging option, but it doesn't work with devices using the merged/virtual filesystem like the Nexi.

About the libusb.library when i type version in shell i get 0.1

Here is the output from shell. It doesnt take time. just outputs some info, i get a crash and when ignoring DSI the rest of the info is typed.

Listing raw device(s)
Device 0 (VID=04e8 and PID=6860) is a Samsung Galaxy models (MTP).

Here's the crashlog.

Well, that doesn't look good. Are you sure the rest of the info it prints out is valid?

If you run mtp-albums (??) or one of the other ones does it give you lists of files on the device?

then I ignore upcoming DSI...

The Galaxy does not work with libmtp: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/udev/+bug/903422

Old thread but anyway wanted to try out mpt-detect with my LG G2 with android 4.4.2 (still waiting for lollipop).

I got this after trying out mtp-detect
assertion "LibusbBase != NULL" failed: file "autoinit_libusb_base.c", line 31

Im on AmigaOS4.1 FE on X1000

@Kicko

You need to install libusb.library.

@Chris
I tried it with a Galaxy phone but get only a Grimreaper.Sadly that it doesn`t work with Galaxy phone`s
