Portable Devices / Pixel 4 not detected - Linux Mint & WINE
« on: December 24, 2020, 08:49:43 PM »
Having an issue with Pixel 4 not being detetcted for syncing on MB (v3.3.7491)
Running MusicBee in WINE on Linux Mint 20 Cinnamon machine.
Steps Taken:
1. Added Pixel storage as a WINE drive pointing to 2 "drives" (separate attempts):
---i. root "mtp://Google_Pixel_4_9B141XXXXXXX" directory
---ii. Music sub-folder "mtp://Google_Pixel_4_9B141XXXXXXX/Internal shared storage/Music"
2. Added the Virtual Device in MusicBee Preferences>Devices via the WINE drive directory.
3. Closed MusicBee
4. Inserted phone to PC via USB 2.0 and selected USB transfer/MTP on the Pixel and confirmed write/read access to mtp: drive in Linux
5. Opened Music Bee and attempted cable sync then wi-fi sync and both fail
Problem:
1. Selecting the Pixel directory Virtual Device tab in MusicBee shows "The device is not accessible"
2. Selecting 'Synchronize' in MusicBee immediately errors out with "Device Virtual Device (P:) is not ready - please insert and try again"
3. WiFi sync Android app also fails to find the MusicBee server even with firewall completely disabled.
MusicBee runs great in all other aspects I just can't for the life of me get it to recognize the Pixel to sync.
I also don't see any option to select 'MTP device' as stated in the KB https://musicbee.fandom.com/wiki/Devices#Preferences
Don't know if it's related but I do get the following error when running 'mtp-detect' in terminal although it shows Pixel as a connected raw device:
Tried the following with no success:

---https://www.debugpoint.com/2016/03/how-to-access-android-devices-internal-storage-and-sd-card-in-ubuntu-linux-mint-using-media-transfer-protocol-mtp/
Probably just missing something very obvious at this point. Let me know if there's any other info I left out. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
