Hello, I was trying to transfer a file from my phone to pc (without installing an app on my phone)

libmtp error: object type doesn't support RepresentativeSampleData.

I got this error, I searched and I saw that it might be related to file name.

So I tried to rename the file but this time I waited a lot and then I got this error:
libmtp error: call to ptp_mtp_getobjectpropssupported() failed

I saw that solution is this:

@AZorin I believe in the new zorin os version, this should be built-in. (That's the difference between Ubuntu and Zorin, Zorin has the features that Ubuntu lacks, this wouldn't happen on Windows PC.)

Now I solved the issue by downloading Android File Transfer, I know I can also solve with Zorin Connect but it's someone else's phone and I don't want to install an application on the phone just for a file. Also Zorin Connect works one-directional -only phone to pc- and since it uses Wİ-Fİ, it's slower than USB file transfer.

Thanks.

So your last paragraph begs the question; What are you doing with someone else's phone? And you can transfer files from computer to phone:

Does it even matter? It might be my phone or my wife's phone. Big file transfer should be possible without additional app

Then just use a USB-C to USB-A to tether the phone without the need for an app.
