[SOLVED] MTP in i3 WM (Android file transfers)

#1 Post by pawRoot »

Hi

On Gnome mounting Android device was working out of the box, but not in i3.
Is there any way to set it up so every time i connect my device it will get auto mounted and show up in lets say pcmanfm or nautilus?

Thanks

For me, auto mount forks just fine (in i3, with PcManFM). Also, you can check udevil package.

it can be made to work.
a while since i said it up, i think udev and dbus come into it.
