GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 568514
gvfs 1.0.2 doesn't allow to mount a MTP device

Hi I had my mobile phone (mtp device) working on previous GNOME version (2.22) with gvfs (i can't remember what version was) but it stop working with 1.0.2. The device is mounted but it can't be opened by any gnome application (nautilus, f-spot, banshee etc...) but using gphoto2 to extract photos works. This bug was previously reported on https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=439346 and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/291840
Mounting those devices (MTP music players) was disabled in 1.0.x because it clashes with applications that use the libmtp library. Only one application could have opened the device at a time. Cameras (and devices that were only cameras, eg. not mobile phones with music players) were disabled. This should be working with gvfs 1.1.x
I believe this is a duplicate of http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=520121
Bastien, this is still not working on gvfs 1.1.x. Do you need any more info to help debug ?
Fixed for me on 1.1.8 Thanks!
