Review request for KDE Frameworks, David Faure and Philipp Schmidt.


Changes
-------

Next version, which uses again only the Solid::Device::listFromType(Solid::DeviceInterface::PortableMediaPlayer, QString()).

Following the comments on https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/4aggg0/error_with_kio_while_trying_to_open_lumia_device/
this still works compared to the unpatched version.


Bugs: 325335

Repository: kio-extras


Description
-------

Right now, Windows Phones (Nokia HW) is not properly recognized by kio-mtp.

It seems the device is listed but dropped for some reason. This issues exists for quite a long time (also in KDE 4.x), and some people provided this patch (from bug #325335).

I personally cannot test this patch, as I don't own a Windows Phone.

However, given this patch works successfully for at least some users (see also https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/4aggg0/error_with_kio_while_trying_to_open_lumia_device/), I think we at least should give it a try.

Adding group 'kdeframeworks' to reach a broader audience.

Would be cool to get a proper review for this patch, or even someone who owns such a device!
