--- Comment #1 from Harald Sitter <sitter at kde.org> ---
This is most likely a variant of https://github.com/libmtp/libmtp/issues/71
specifically " is a reserved character on windows [1] so it appearing in
filenames wouldn't be portable and your phone may consequently reject the
filename. I've had a look at our code and we do nothing fancy with the name, so
whatever is wrong is inside libmtp and that linked issue seems like the prime
candidate (e.g. note how the reserved windows characters are missing from the
expression on the s10, most notably " is missing)
