Re: Copying files from an Android phone

Plenty options here.

I usually either dump the files from the phone to an external pen-drive
(which requires you to have an USB-OTG cable and your phone to support
OTG) or launch an FTP server from Android and download the files into my
OpenBSD machine using an FTP client.

FTP Server is available for Android in FDROID, I think.
