Just throwing this out there, ignore if it's irrelevant..

On my old BB Storm 1, I had to turn on "Mass Storage" or "Use as USB Storage" or some such option in settings before it would appear as a drive on my linux box.

I no longer have that unit (thank god) so I'm not sure of the exact location.

Have you looked through your options/settings on the device?

Take care.
