Resolved: mount MTP phone

[Anthony Baldwin <baldwinlinguas@gmx.com>]

Sorry for top-posting.
Iḿ no t even sure what it was that DID solve this but the phone is now 
mounting at mtp://[usb:005,012]/
Must have something to do with installing the jmtpfs pkg,
because that's the only thing I can think of that I did yesterday that 
could be making a difference today.
I did briefly put the phone on ptp/camera mode, and it let me download 
the photos on it, but now it's letting me completely access the storage 
for whatever (move photos, music, etc. phone<->computer)
