I have recently bought a samsung galaxy to try and use my free softwear laptop and get rid of my iphone and mac,

however i cant seem to upload music onto my samsung phone without their kiers softwear and iv tried manually uploading music but samsung seem to crash banshee or come up with a crazy error messsage everytime.

are there any alternatives to kier or is there a loop hole? any suggestions would be appreciated!!

This website says you can upload music to a note by using it as a media storage like we do with most phones.

On the same note, couldn't you ask your brother? I'm sure he'd know of such things.

yeah feel free to ask me rosie

i haven’t tried uploading music on the galaxy note 2 before
without Replicant being installed(your still running the Samsung non-free android Distro)

so there may be some restrictions with accessing certain files on the system as its not rooted but i think
there should be a way to copy music onto it without using samsungs software

so my solution is basicly give it me for half a hour and i will probably find a solution

found the link for a solution to this thread. https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2105266

also turn usb debugging on in the phone.
