Gnome doesn't see my phone

I connected it and allowed file transfer but laptop doesn’t react. P.S. phone is charging through laptop.

More data needed. Android or iPhone etc.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 5
Android 9 PKQ1
Snapdragon 636 - processor
MIUI 12.0.2 Stable (Xiaomi OS)

If you run the command lsusb, do you see your device?

Just type Isusb in terminal? I will try

It does see my phone:

Edit: but there’s still quiet in Nautilus and Disks app.

It is there:

If it is in charge mode, then there will be nothing visible.

If you need MTP in nautilus, then install gvfs-mtp . It is a optional dependency of gvfs.
