Isn't there a Package on Fedora repo that you can install so as to view files on Android Phones by USB ??
Some will show up as USB mass storage (or at least let you access an attached sd card by that method). I've got a samsung which is locked down for that (and I don't want to have to root it), in which case you have to use MTP. For access in KDE I've got kio_mtp installed. simple-mtpfs works for me if I need command line access. The phone needs to be unlocked while accessing it.

Just be aware that MTP doesn't give you a "real" filesystem, e.g. IIRC there's no seeking and files cannot be modified in place or even directly overwritten, just read, written and deleted. simple_mtpfs does some caching to try to disguise this but it's useful to know.
