Folder opening in terminal but not in Nautilus File Manager

edit

I finally got MTP to work. Here is the link to the solution if anybody wants to access the MTP filesystem.

1. Install requirement

   sudo yum install gcc-c++ fuse-devel libmtp-devel glib-devel glib2-devel file-devel

2. Installing libMTP

   • Download the latest version of libmtp and extract it to your home directory. For this example, it will be ~/libmtp-1.1.5

 `# cd ~/libmtp-1.1.5`
 `# ./configure`
 `# make`
 `# sudo make install`

1. Installing jmtpfs

 `# cd'
 '# wget http://research.jacquette.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/jmtpfs-0.3.tar.gz'
 '# tar xfvz jmtpfs-0.3.tar.gz jmtpfs-0.3'
 '# cd jmtpfs-0.3'
 '# ./configure'
 '# cd src'
 '# make'
 '# sudo make install`

1. Allowing other with fuse

   Edit the file /etc/fuse.conf and uncomment the line

   # user_allow_other

   to

   user_allow_other

2. Mounting the phone !

   Now we are ready to mount the phone. Make sure your Samsung Galaxy S3 is connected with a usb cable

 `# mkdir ~/Samsung_Galaxy_S3`
 `# jmtpfs -o allow_other ~/Samsung_Galaxy_S3   (this can take some time (1-2 minutes for me) `

You may have a warning after the last command, I get this:

 `PTP_ERROR_IO: failed to open session, trying again after resetting USB interface`
 `LIBMTP libusb: Attempt to reset device`

Just ignore it.

You are now ready.

# cd ~/Samsung_Galaxy_S3
# ls
Phone
# cd Phone
# ls
Alarms       DCIM      Movies         PicSpeed Wallpapers  Ringtones
Android      Download  Music          Pictures             samsungapps
Application  media     Notifications  Podcasts

For unmounting the phone, be sure closing applications that are in the new mount directory (this include terminal)

`fusermount -u ~/Samsung_Galaxy_S3`

Thats it !
