I have literally never had an issue doing this.
I don't but samshit, though. Not sure if that matters.

literally all im trying to do is move music to my SD card from my hard drive, and i get completely random errors every time, followed by explorer sometimes completely locking up until i remove the device. it blows my mind that this is still an issue. time to go buy a fucking SD to USB adapter i guess, or use some shitty ad-ridden wifi app

Try updating your Samsung drivers.

Also, use FTP.

Rooted?You could smb fileshare or scp through ssh.

Samsung has software that you need (citation needed) to use look at the files on your phone. I think they're trying to become Apple

>tfw use mac and rooted Nexus 6 and it just werks™️

My Moto X 2014 and X Play work fine under Windows and Linux. Mac no so much, the Android transfer utility sucks donkey dicks.

I had an S6 (which I returned very shortly after getting it) didn't work very well at all. Kept disappearing, speed was shit when it did work and just plain frustrating. I don't know what the deal was.

>tfw use Linux and rooted Nexus 6 and it just werks

I plug my note 5 into my pc, tap the charging icon and select file transfer in the pull down menu, and I can drag and drop whatever I want.

Not sure why you're being so difficult.

Also make sure the device is not locked and the lockscreen is off

It is false. Kies is not required.

Sounds like you have abso-fucking-lutely no idea what you're doing.

Did you even let the usb drivers install?

Do you have permission to copy from that folder?

Are you autism spectrum?

Have you tried airdroid?

>>54552920
Set up an ftp server on your phone. Works great but speeds depend on your routers processing power and copying music this way doesn't trigger Android to scan for new media.

Set up a... Nigger, are you serious? A fucking FTP running on a smartphone, to transfer files between a phone and a computer a few feet away?

Jesus. Shit like this is why I gave up and got an iPhone. Android just cannot get its shit together. Its evangelists go on and on about drag-and-drop and SD card support, but then you get this nonsense, and Google took several major revisions to even figure out whether they wanted SD cards to have write permissions or not. And when they finally decided on adoptable storage, Samsung and LG decide to go to extra effort to remove the feature from their flagship handsets.

Count me out. Fuck.

Try Airdroid out dude.. seems pretty legit so far. So many features and haven't had any issues with it so far.

anon, maybe dont use MTP but instead mount as USB Storage

just use ftp

Sorry, I hope you learn from your mistake. Literally no other vendor has this problem. It's only Samsung that is this shit.
