Testing - Simple-Mtpfs - Fossapup64-95 [SOLVED]

Post by Jasper »

Hi all

I have compiled an update for this application as I hoped it would work faster in transferring files to/from my mobile phone.

When I tried to transfer files it does allow me to view the contents of the device but fails in writing to the device. Also, it takes longer to generate thumbnails.

Anyone willing to test it out and let me know where I went wrong?

Source code was downloaded from here:

https://github.com/phatina/simple-mtpfs

I did need to have the library libmtp installed before it would compile.

See this issue: https://github.com/phatina/simple-mtpfs/issues/81.
The commit that I identified as a culprit is supposed to make file operations faster, but it simply doesn't work on many devices.

@JakeSFR

Thank you for looking at this and providing me with an answer. :thumbup:

It is strange as I end up with a "log" file if I cancel the operation. The log file is empty and I should have made a screenshot of the error messages :oops:

One thing I did not do was to try to use it directly via the CLI instead of using a dialog box.
