There is a package you can install to enable USB mass storage, but it's |
| 11 |
not in the market. Bear in mind though that this can cause problems, |
| 12 |
because the S3 doesn't expect the memory to suddenly become unavailable, |
| 13 |
the whole reason for using MTP is that you don't have to unmount the |
| 14 |
storage and stop any applications that are using it to transfer a few |
| 15 |
files. |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
However, I've also found all the mtp options in portage to be unreliable, |
| 18 |
so I run QuickSSHd on the phone and transfer files with scp or mount the |
| 19 |
phone with sshfs. |

Things which must be shipped together as a set, aren't. |
