Hi Chris, as per the log you provided on libmtp mailing list, gphoto2 is used for your device, not libmtp. So it is not a problem that it is not recognized as MTP device. But the problem is that the device was disconnected for some reason. It happened obviously during the mount procedure as per the gvfsd-gphoto2 and gnome-shell messages in the log. We should fix those, but that's not the cause, just consequence. The question is why it was disconnected. This can be because of some corrupted cable, but it is not your case probably when the mass storage mode works. My MTP and PTP device seems working properly on Fedora 29, so this is probably device specific. You may try your chance on http://gphoto.org/mailinglists/.
