The Webupd8 method
http://www.webupd8.org/2012/12/how-to-m ... s.html?m=1
didn't work just right for me so I made some modifications some others finding this thread may find helpful.

First I did as Webupd8 said but when it came to using the Unity script I could not find it. So I created 2 scripts (in my user directory with permissions for my user) called

mountnexus4.sh

Code: Select all

go-mtpfs /media/MyAndroid
and
unmountnexus4.sh

Code: Select all

fusermount -u /media/MyAndroid
made them both executable and then dragged them to my unlocked toolbar creating a widget link. Then created an image of a Nexus 4 and an image of a nexus 4 with a red not symbol on it. Changed the widgets icons and locked the toolbar. Result is when I click on one it mounts my Nexus 4 and the other un-mounts my Nexus 4. Works for me.
