GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 589029
Support for Samsung Android Device (Galaxy alias GT-I7500
Last modified: 2009-07-31 19:58:25 UTC
I would love to see the Samsung Galaxy supported in Banshee. It should be quiet similar to the HTC G1. Vendor-name: Samsung Vendor-id: 0x04e8 Product-id: 0x6603 I would love to add it myself but i have no clue how i have to start. I guess adding an entry to Banshee.Dap.MassStorage.addin.xml and recompiling might do?!
Yes, adding a line like the following in Banshee.Dap.MassStorage.addin.xml might do the trick : <MassStorageDevice class="Banshee.Dap.MassStorage.AndroidDevice" vendor-name="Samsung" product-name="Galaxy" vendor-id="0x04e8" product-id="0x6603"/> If it works, please attach a patch here, so that we can include this in the next release.

My Patch worked perfectly on Gentoo Linux.
Thanks for the patch ! Were you able to check that everything works like on the G1 : cover art, Amazon store, etc. ? Now if only I could get one of these where I live... :(
Created attachment 139634 [details] [review] Patch to Fix Samsung Galaxy support Added support for Galaxies "USB-Debug-Mode" in Banshee. Now it is recognised by Banshee both in Massstorage-Mode and in Debug-Mode.
Yes those Patches seem to work both just fine. Cover Art gets exported to the Phone and shows up fine. I can not test Amazon Support, as there is no Support for it in Germany (I wish i could use Amazon natively with that Phone).
Thanks for the patch ! I just committed it, with a few cosmetic changes. For the future, please create your patches from a recent git checkout. This didn't make any difference in this case, but I thought I'd mention it.
