How to connect mtp android device to ubuntu 13.10
I searched here and google and all I could find is how in Ubuntu 13.04 forward mtp devices are supported. The answer I found are for ubuntu 12.04 or ubuntu 12.10
Well, I connected my phone in mtp mode and I don't see it on my machine. How can I see it?
Edit: Requested data
This is my phone (Xtreamer q)
I also tried a samsung galaxy s2 device, which popped an error message (unable to mount device). My phone didn't give such mistake.
And this is the output of lsusb and mtp-detect

I guess that the third text line from the bottom is the problem. But I don't what to do with it.
I had the same issue, and the following worked
sudo apt-get install mtp-tools mtpfs
I too had the problem that my "asus padfone infinity" was not mounted through mtp. (adb worked though).
Solution was to connect it through one of the USB3 Ports of my thinkpad instead of a usb2 port. Looks like the USB2 port is not recognized as usb2, or are devicenames for usb2 "usb1"?
