Make sure your phone is unlocked, android locks the partitions when the phone is, same as adb. Also, android is definitely weird about sd-card access, you typically have to unlock it specially to request permissions separately, I've run into this on numerous devices that access files there, and may limit connect. I don't use kde or dolphin much to use this feature, but I know I *have* used it in the past, just don't remember details beyond above. -mb On Sat, Dec 29, 2018 at 10:08 PM Stephen Partington wrote: > I would check in the connect settings and then the app permissions.
