# jmtpfs -o allow_other /mnt/memstick
Device 0 (VID=04e8 and PID=6860) is a Samsung Galaxy models (MTP).
# ls -l /mnt/memstick
ls: /mnt/memstick: Input/output error
# umount /mnt/memstick

It acted like it worked...
   phone dinged when plugged in
The phone is set to:
   Use USB for: Transferring files/AndroidAuto
   USB controlled by: This device (I can't seem to change it)

Once or twice I saw the notice for Allow/Disallow access and allowed,
but always after things didn't work; now I can't find it:
   plug in phone
   ding
   ... no dialog, even with no apps on screen
Swipe up, down, left, right... nada
Swipe down, I see "USB for file transfer", as if it's ok as is / already allowed,
but ls still fails.
Thoughts?
Samsung Galaxy A15
