currently running fedora rawhide but i suspect this is a more
general fedora issue -- i could be wrong. whenever i plug in my HTC
android phone to my laptop (via USB), it's totally hit and miss
whether i get the phone's content mounted under /run/user/1000/gvfs,
which allows me to copy pics out of the gallery and so on.
sometimes it works fine, sometimes not. when i plug it in, the phone
typically displays "USB tethering [connected]" and "Media device [MTP]
connected", which is what i expect to see, but whether the mount
actually succeeds is unpredictable.
what driver/kernel feature is responsible for this? it would be
easier to debug if it wasn't so arbitrary about whether it worked or
not.

got a mount point for my phone. which is weird since now i have no
idea why this ever worked before but ... i'll take the results and
move on. thanks muchly.

[root@pauls-server log]# yum list|grep mtpfs
simple-mtpfs.x86_64 0.2-3.fc21
installed that package but still no luck ... plug in the phone but
no indication of mounting. what's confusing, as i mentioned earlier,
is that this *occasionally* worked just fine. from /var/log/messages,
plugging in the phone generates a ton of messages but these two lines
look significant:
Apr 14 10:01:53 Device-040570 systemd: Unit iscsi.service cannot be
reloaded because it is inactive.
Apr 14 10:01:53 Device-040570 ModemManager[934]: <warn> Couldn't find
support for device at
'/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb4/4-1/4-1.3': not supported
by any plugin
is that something i should be concerned about? i certainly can't start
or enable the iscsi manually.

ah, my mistake, just needed to enable the correct repo. ok, i'll give
this a shot later, thanks.
I don't remember what repo I enabled, but I know that package works:)

of the above libs, the first three are already installed, and the
last, simple-mtpfs, does not show up in a "yum search". remember, i'm
running rawhide so perhaps that package has been removed.
the other package that looks relevant, gvfs-mtp, is already
installed, so i'll check out the thread you mention above a bit later
this morning to see what other choices i have.
