Difficulty uploading pics from ZTE smartphone via USB

[flamingo]

I am brand new user of Puppy Wary. I got this software installed by a friend as Windows Professional XP was running out last year and no longer supported. But wanted to keep my computer as it was.

I have an English version although my native language is German. I have no idea what version it exactly is. It is booted I believe that is the term via a CD.

I got this new smart phone which is an android by the brand ZTE. I hooked it up via USB but I could not see anywhere anything showing me a USB connection on the computer. No link to be found anywhere. At least I don't know where to look.

I tried to check some settings on the phone to upload my pics to the computer but since I don't know which link to use at all to detect my phone in the first place, that was useless.

I'm not familiar with the computer language, so simplicity would be a great thing if anybody could help.

Thanks so much.

Hello @Flamingo

This is a forum thread which arose this year to address this problem you have. ===> Click Here

Here to help

Edit: A simple approach would be to merely

1. click and install the 3files mentioned ===> here
2. plug your ZTE into the USB port
3. browse-navigate your ZTE's filesystem as needed fr photos/music/movies/etc.

Thank you. I have installed those files and indeed my ZTE was detected immediately. But the window that popped up afterwards was empty. No pictures were shown

OK, this issue has been permanently solved.

Would you mind telling us how you solved it?

Chiming in...
Method described HERE and HERE
will not work with ZTE Blade 3
running this port of CM11. (check post #3)

Q: When I'm connected with an USB cable to my computer, I can't see my internal sdcard as a storage, why?
A: I've made an executive decision not to include a mount point for internal sdcard. This is because recent Android versions don't allow setting emulated sdcard as secondary storage. Setting rather small emulated sdcard as a primary storage caused issues with games/apps that want to download large amounts of data to the sdcard.

Instead, you should enable Android debugging on your device (Developer options menu) and simply use Menu>Graphic>PupCamera to access
your sdcard. For me, it works W/O problem.
Cheers!
