OK.

But nothing shows up as files. I can't find anything on yum that would
act as a file manager. How do I actually transfer files to the nexus?

MTP is broken under GNU/Linux. I filed bug reports with the project but
nothing happening there. You can use web-based apps to transfer data
between the two devices. You don't need to install anything on your
Linux box.

This is for Ubuntu but since OS is irrelevant it will work with Fedora
as well.

Swapnil
That has the same problem as WiFi File Explorer: you can't copy folders,
only files.

Right. It can export folders but as compressed. What I used to do was
create a folder of same name and then copy all files. Much simpler than
borrowing windows.

Swapnil
Yeah, but that doesn't work for nested folders.

BTW, I'm not sure MTP is busted, but the Fedora repository just doesn't have a front-end to libmtp.

And yes, it's only some Android phones that can't use usb mass storage: but it's any phone without a removable storage card.
