Connecting Mobile Phone to OS? - PinStripe - 12-08-2016

Hello, this is my 2nd post here...
I have tried connecting my LG V20 phone to the computer in attempt to transfer photos to my OS.
But when the file manager loads after clicking on the phone icon, the proper folders come up and I
go into the internal folder and then click on the Camera folder where the photos would be stored. But
then all of a sudden, everytime, it comes back with FAILED TO MOUNT LG. What?? I was just in it!!

How do I transfer photos from my phone to this OS? Haven't had an issue for over a year with other
distros. Why this one?

Not sure it will help in your case but have you tried copying the camera folder to your desktop before opening it?

You might consider the following link and advancing to the "Unclean LogFile" section:
