[Gen9, Gen10 General] scholbert:
get things rollin' on linux

Hi,

i started to do some research how to activate/implement the MTP on my laptop running Linux Mint (in partitular LMDE). Process would be the same for Debian and similar for Ubuntu.

To fully support the Gen 9 series libmtd version 1.1.2 should be installed on your machine.

See the logs at http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=158745&atid=809061

To start you need some essential packages first.

Afterwards you'll be able to see the device. I'm still in the process of sorting out how to make it work pleasantly.

Right now it'S not working the way it should. Anyway here are some requirements...

If you're on Debian Wheezy, simply install libmtp and stuff using your package manager.

Older versions only support older versions, not matching for the Archos G9 series.

If you're on Linux Mint it is possible to install version 1.1.2 manually from console (to force a partial upgrade).

Unfortunately some tools are little behind in this distro (at least LMDE) :rolleyes:

Grab at least four packages from Debian Wheezy repo (e.g. 64bit machine):

- libmtp-common_1.1.2-2_all.deb

- libmtp9_1.1.2-2_amd64.deb

- libmtp-runtime_1.1.2-2_amd64.deb

- mtp-tools_1.1.2-2_amd64.deb

Remark: Install these in the right order. See the command below.

I found it to be safe to upgrade these packages partially, no depends are broken afterwards.

Please do not update your repository sources to point at the wheezy tree.

This might definitely confuse your package manager.

Additionally needed for handling virtual drives (better use package manager for install):

- fuse

- mtpfs

On Linux Mint (LMDE) you might then simply enter a root console to force upgrade of native libmtp:

dpkg -i libmtp-common_1.1.2-2_all.deb libmtp9_1.1.2-2_amd64.deb libmtp-runtime_1.1.2-2_amd64.deb mtp-tools_1.1.2-2_amd64.deb

I am not using Ubuntu, but i found out that 1.1.2 has found its way in 12.04 (precise), which is yet to be released.

Remark for Ubuntu 11.10 (oneiric):

In this distro libmtp 1.1.0 is used, unfortunately no Archos G9 support natively.

You could try to force a partial update though.

Please check dependencies first!

After installing you should add your username to the group audio:

adduser your_username audio

This is because the Gen 9 devices enumerate as audio device in the USB device-tree.

If you leave this out, only root will have access to this device.

Though this might be considered as optional.

Now you'll be able to use the mtp-tools (as a user) to discover your device and do lowlevel stuff.

As already stated things are not done automatically.

I will investigate, maybe some things are missing... (e.g. install package mtpfs).

Maybe this is the reason, why i got no virtual drive.

After installing mtpfs you may mount the internal storage of your Archos device (as root):

# mkdir ~/g9-storage
# mtpfs -o allow_other ~/g9-storage

The internal storage is now accessable...

To unmount:

# fusermount -u ~/g9-storage

Even with some scripting this is far from automount (like known from USB mass storage devices), but it works.

I'll try to find an even more convenient way...

Stay tuned!

[Gen9, Gen10 General] Linuxslate:
Any way to enable USB Mass Storage mode?

On 4.0.28 (stock), I only have MTP and PTP. I would like it to work as a "Normal" USB mass storage device, like most Android devices.

If all I can see is the SD Card, that's fine. It's much more convenient that carrying around a USB Card reader, and having to remove the card.

AW: Mobile Transfer Protocol (MTP) v.s. USB Mass Storage (UMS)

Hi, you can use FTP over Wi-Fi. With root access you can export every file you like.
[Gen9, Gen10 General] Linuxslate:
Several other options:

1. SD card reader - Some Micro SD cards come with a tiny USB reader.

2. SD card adapter - Some Micro SD cards come with an adapter that lets them be used in a full size SD slot.

3. ADB via command line. adb push and adb pull.

Best I have found:

4. Use the file manager in DDMS. DDMS includes a simple file manager. It's basically a GUI for adb push and adb pull. DDMS is part of the Android SDK.

You should be a bit more specific. I don't understand what do you mean with "others cannot get through my phone".
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spheron:
your phone may indeed be too small for another human being to go through, if by "others" you mean human beings. if you are referring to aliens then it depends on the species i guess.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=24124828#post24124828

my device got stuck on yellow triangle and got an error on the cmd waiting for device .

so i searched that and fixed it using this method

and continued using the ADB command .

and this didnt work .

i tried the KFU (witch is a great tool)

didn't also help :(

whenever i load the super user app it crash and give me an error

"the application super user(process com.noshufu.android.su) has stopped unexpectedly.please try again and a button Force close

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b63:
would suggest to redo according to jcases thread and take care to not miss a point - maybe redownload the superuser.apk

and which version of kfu ? 0.9.4 ?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marakji:

0.9.3
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b63:
0.9.3 uses the method for 6.2.2

0.9.4 uses the method for 6.3

would suggest to retry with the new version
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marakji:

at first kindle fire utility 0.9.4. did not work for me either and what I had to do was uninstall the drivers for the kindle fire, then plug it back in and let it install again. After that kfu worked perfect for me. I installed twrp, then I rooted, then I installed firefirefire

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b63:
puh - kfu seems to work perfect besides "mv: can't rename '/system/bin/check_rooted': No such file or directory"

is the kf booted to twrp at this point ?

the error seems to be because the file is allready renamed

the rooting process seem to be fine

only a idea : try to go to settings - apps - superuser and clear cache and data

then reboot - maybe this helps ...
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drumaster12:
same problem

I'm having the same problem using KFU 0.9.4 and 0.9.5. Root seems to work perfectly, but when the device reboots I do not have root. I don't even have superuser in my apps. When trying to install google apps I get "permission denied" for the last three apps due to not having root.

help?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DPAnyion:
Yeah, KFU 0.9.5 doesn't seem to be fully baked yet on 6.3 either. I tried installing the Google Apps and ran into permission issues also.

Here's what I got at the very end:

failed to copy 'apps\system\vending.apk' to '/system/app/vending.apk': Permissio

n denied

failed to copy 'apps\system\GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter.apk' to '/system/app/Googl

I had originally posted this under the CM9 nightly, but that's not inclusive as much as it should be..

I keep getting what I guess would be UI crashes. It happens sometimes with the screen off, I'll get a vibration and when I unlock the screen it's wanting to email a bug report. I started having this a while ago while running MCR, and I thought it might be related to that ROM. Having not looked at CM9 since early January, I read that it was quite stable now so I switched to it yesterday and I'm still getting these. Probably about 6-8 a day. I'm running 0327.

Is there something I could determine from these, or is this something I should submit, somewhere? I've tried as many things as I can think of that I've done in the past, including but not limited to: full wipes. restoring titanium backups (apps and data, and just the apps), downloading all the apps on initial install, fixing permissions, trying other ROMs..
