Running Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, I have attempted to get ADB working with an Android 7.1.1 Wileyfox Swift phone. Running adb devices shows no results:

$ adb devices

* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *

* daemon started successfully *

List of devices attached 

Some basics I've tried:

• Multiple USB cables and multiple ports


• Developer mode is on


• USB Debugging is turned on


• I have tried setting USB mode to Charging, PTP, and MTP


• Restarting the adb server, and attempting to run it as root.

lsusb shows my phone:

$ lsusb

Bus 001 Device 013: ID 2970:2282

I have appropriate udev rules (NB I found the second rule at https://compuitusa.com/mounting-the-android-phone-in-ubuntu-16-04/):

$ cat /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="2970", ATTR{idProduct}=="2282", MODE="0666"

$ cat /etc/udev/rules.d/52-mtp.rules

ATTR{idVendor}="2970", ATTR{idProduct}=="2282", SYMLINK+="libmtp-%k", ENV{ID_MTP_DEVICE}="1", ENV{ID_MEDIA_PLAYER}="1"

The permissions setup by udev look OK:

$ ls -lah /dev/bus/usb/001/013

crw-rw-rw-+ 1 root root 189, 12 Aug 29 06:56 /dev/bus/usb/001/013

The phone shows up using dmesg:

The phone is displayed as a Unity launcher. However, clicking on the launcher sometimes brings up a pop up message ‘Unable to mount Android Device‘ but does nothing else. Running Nautilus shows the phone as an entry under Computer: clicking the phone's entry does nothing. I've also tried setting the phone's usb parameters to Charging and PTP rather than MTP with no success for adb devices or to see the phone's files. Any ideas how to get ADB to find the phone and how to see the phone's files in Nautilus?
