Ok I was copying a bunch of games from one of my Windows drives over to my phone while booted into Linux. And I got this error that says "libmtp error: Could not open source file". Thankfully I was able to copy the files when I was booted into Windows but it would be nice if I could Transfer files from my Windows drives without having to reboot into Windows. Is there a way I can fix this problem.
I think it might have to do with the ntfs file system because I copied one of the files from the phone back to my Desktop which is ext4 and then back to the phone without any issues. I already tried installing ntfs-3g which was already installed on my distro.
I've also had trouble with automatic MTP mounts in GNOME. Try a program called gMTP, I use it for mp3s but I think it can do regular files as well.
I just installed the program but it says that it cannot find any devices.
Sorry to hear that, I don't have any other recommendations 🙁
