Reminds me of the Android File Transfer bug that disables MacBook keyboard/trackpad if the phone is locked. It was recently marked as "obsolete", despite all Android documentation (and even software on the phone) suggests the user use it, and the bug still exists on Lollipop:

I don't really understand how this has slipped through the cracks; Google has a decent number of MacBooks in their offices last time I was there, so maybe copying files just isn't popular? Either way, it's a pain that the tool is closed source and the maintainer won't maintain it.

I ended up paying for a third party app called SyncMate, but it works flawlessly and even restores the ability to mount the phone and have everything just work easily instead of the broken media transfer protocol Google is trying to force on everyone.
- habosa 12y agoWow thank you for pointing this out. I couldn't figure out why once in a while AFT would completely screw my Macbook. You're my hero of the day.
