Public bug reported:

I recently obtained an LG VS950 android phone and find that it is not
recognized by the libmtp9 release in trusty.  I contacted the maintainer
and he added support to git for the 1.1.10 release, but this does not
get my phone connected.  The fix is simply adding the information about
the phone to a single file.  The patch is:
