[Bug 1215098] Re: iPhone with iOS 7 does not work on Ubuntu

 

Also, why is this bug marked "Incomplete"?  There are multiple users
confirming this bug, so it should be "Confirmed" like the Launchpad
Janitor already did a while ago (Comment #2).  And why is it necessary
for normal users to verify if this bug exists in the upstream version of
the Ubuntu kernel (which is different than the standard mainstream
kernel that is provided via the normal Ubuntu system update manager)?
Many users won't have the expertise to change out their kernel, and I
simply don't want to go through the hassle since I noticed this bug was
present when attempting to charge up my wife's iPhone (and I normally do
not need to access her data on my Ubuntu computer).

So, it seems wasteful to let this bug expire automatically.

Title:
  iPhone with iOS 7 does not work on Ubuntu

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Devices running iOS 7 now have a USB Pair Trust prompt that appears
  when the device is plugged into a machine. This prompt reads "Trust
  This Computer? Your settings and data will be accessible from this
  computer when connected via USB or Wi-Fi. [Trust] [Don't Trust]"

  Repro:
  1) Plug powered-on Apple device with iOS 7 into Ubuntu USB port

  Expected results: 
  The device should pair with the Ubuntu machine when "Trust" is tapped.

  Actual results: 
  When plugged into an Ubuntu machine, when the Trust button on the prompt is clicked, the iPhone buzzes twice, then repeats the prompt. This will repeat endlessly. 

  On the Ubuntu machine, a dialog reading "The device "[name of device]"
  is locked. Enter the passcode on the device and click "Try again".
  [Cancel] [Try again]" is displayed. However, no opportunity to enter
  the passcode on the device is ever displayed. Clicking "Try again"
  only re-displays this dialog, endlessly.
