Why are files not visible over MTP on Android?
This is apparently a known bug in Android which is not even acknowledged by Google since Oct 2012, bug #2 — depending on the method of creating files on the Android device, these files may remain invisible when accessing the device using MTP, until the device is rebooted. Use USB storage mode instead of MTP, if it is supported by the phone.
Is there a mounted file system for MTP?
MTP is a protocol, much like FTP or SSH. It fetches files when the user asks for it. Thus there is no mounted file system on the computer. Use mtpfs in order to make it appear like a mounted file system.
How do I get files to show up in MTP?
However, simply renaming the folder that was missing using a File Explorer app on my phone from “Music” to “Music1” did the trick – it showed up immediately in Android File Transfer. Simple, quick, dirty 🙂 The folder can easily be renamed back when you’re done transferring.
Do you use MTP or USB mass storage on Android?
If you have an older Android device, you may be forced to use USB mass storage. On a modern Android device, you have a choice between MTP and PTP — you should use MTP unless you have software that only supports PTP.
Is there an ADB shell SVC USB setfunctions MTP?
“adb shell svc usb setFunctions mtp” worked for me in Android 9 (lineage OS). I think the final parameter “true” on the end is optional but is false by default.
How to enable MTP mode on an Android phone?
