It works but is a bit flaky, and using the wifi hotspot from my phone it's slow. I have tried it in the past with same S6 phone and a couple of Ubuntu systems. Edit: SSS did not work at wifi place, sigh. Will go on excursion soon to a venue with wifi to search for further success. USB A-to-micro Cables that have worked happily with Samsung S6 for yonks are not accepted by fussy Pixel 6. He had more sage advice there: try Samsung Smart Switch. Mentioned to guy in shop that I was exasperated by process of migrating data from old phone to new.

The detail of Android navigation (from notifications menu, not via apps > settings > connected devices > USB) is important.


Phone is happy with 2m cable bought yesterday too. Maybe problem was with Linux or Ubuntu? Tried same technique on my Ubuntu 20.04 system and it worked. Hooray!Īfter that we could explore Pixel's files, at least on his Win 10 machine. In Nautilus window for Pixel 6 'Internal shared storage' folder appears. Then select 'File transfer/Android Auto' radio button

→this opens 'USB Preferences' menu within Settings Relevant small tile reads: Charging this device via USB How about data transfer? His route to same settings I had adjusted was via notifications menu pulled down from top of home screen. His first move was to prove cable worked with my Pixel 6 handset - yes, cable supplied power. Wow, he could gallop through Android 12 interface at an astonishing pace. To my very good fortune the guy serving was super familiar with Android phones having worked in retail for a big Aus telco flogging phones et al. Computer parts shop is nearby, went back with thoughts of returning 1m A-to-C cable. Minutes later tried out 1m cable with PC. Second one is 1m, arguably better quality but not primo by any stretch. First one was 2m and admittedly el cheapo. Have I missed something?īought another USB 3.x A-to-C cable today. I thought the job of moving data to new phone was going to be super easy. Selecting 'File transfer/Android Auto' doesn't work either. No data transfer (defaults to this radio button checked soon after plugging in USB cable) I've tried to find a remedy via phone's settings.

The phone does not display a notice asking for PC to be allowed to access its files. Same notice is seen if I select Pixel 6 listing in Nautilus left margin. Debian 8.0 (Jessie) Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty) Web. iOS 12.0 or later Compatible with iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. Notification appears at top of PC screen listing Pixel 6 moving mouse cursor over it causes 'Open with Files' notice to appear clicking it opens Nautilus window displaying 'Folder is empty' notice. Send files of any size and type, as many times as you want, all for free. After connecting phone to Ubuntu system the phone gives a haptic buzz and nautilus lists Pixel 6 in its left margin. Same process is not working with Pixel 6. Once job was done I hit the Nautilus eject button beside S6 listing and all was good. Connect phone to PC via USB cable Nautilus detects phone immediately touch 'allow' on phone's screen to give permission for PC to access phone after which I could freely transfer files to and from phone and modify files on phone.
