Hello,

Does this work for the Samsung Note mobile phone?

Regards,

Allan :)

I keep getting this display help please.
ERROR COULD NOT DISPLAY
"HOME/DESKTOP/GALAXY NEXUS
PLEASE SELECT ABOTHER VIEWER AND TRY AGAIN.

What does this mean and more importantly how do I do it?

Hello,

I have a Samsung Note Mobile phone and can get it to mount but although the SD card files are visible they are only recognized as Rhythmbox files and cannot be opened.

The only solution I have come with so far is to transfer files using Bluetooth.

Regards,

Allan :)

thanks alan but i dont have bluetooth on my desktop

Hello,

Bluetooth USBs don't cost much

Regards,

Allan :)

thanks will give that a try. will i be able to transfere music to and from my phone using this method?

Hello,

With Bluetooth you can transfer any file that the phone can read. I have transferred Music, Photos and Documents with no problems.

I guess at some point of time in the future I will learn how to get the Samsung phone to mount and allow me to transfer files by usb cable. The other method that I use is to remove the phone's external SD card and place it in a card reader.

Regards,

Allan :)

Which is interesting since it is not clear that a gnome session manager makes sense with xfce4.
