Running 15.10 Wily. Installed using the minimal ISO (network install) and selected Xubuntu core. After installing procinfo and running ls_usb, I can see the device when it's plugged in
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 04e8:6860 Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd Galaxy (MTP)
However, the device cannot be found to interact with it and mount the filesystems. I tried following Will's instructions in this thread here, but when I reached step six,
sudo mtpfs -o allow_other /media/mtp/phone
I get the following

Now, entering t the final command
ls -lt /media/mtp/phone/Card
returns an error
ls: cannot access /media/mtp/Android: Transport endpoint is not connected
(I replaced 'phone' with 'Android' in the folder name and commands to better fit my usual naming scheme; it still says 'phone' above because I simply copy->pasted from the other thread)
Please advise.
Further information:: Following another thread which suggested the problem might lie with udev, I attempted this solution, to be greeted with the following error
adduser: The group `fuse' does not exist.
when attempting to add myself to the group. Should I have such a group?
In order to avoid conflicting 'solutions' (and keep the install as clean as possible), I have since removed
- /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules
- mtpfs, mtp-tools (apt-get purge)
- the the /media and /media/mtp folders we created (one was busy and had to be deleted after reboot)
So we should be starting fresh, having undone reversed my earlier attempts.
