App doesn't open on macOS Monterey #317

I'm on macOS Monterey Version 12.5.1, the app insta crashes when I try to launch it. Installed from dmg file and brew cask, same results for both. Happy to provide any more info that's helpful.

I see the same on Monterey (Intel). When I run the app from terminal I see the following error, which seems to be related to USB device access:

IOCreatePlugInInterfaceForService(desc, kIOUSBDeviceUserClientTypeID, kIOCFPlugInInterfaceID, &plugInInterface, &score): error 0xe00002be

partially fixed in c6e9636763a060cce7b8da18d9630badcb8775e7

no MTP device found message box was broken some time ago - restored

I guess it's missing an entitlement for raw usb, but I have no idea how to add it without signing

For raw USB access the entitlement key is com.apple.security.device.usb,

I can get it to launch after fresh boot (latest Ventura version), but after that it hangs. I also seem to get only one use of CLI before it says 'device in use'. Have not figured out how to reset it.

In my case it was adb blocking. Solution:

  1. adb kill-server
  2. un- and replug the USB cable
  3. on the phone, toggle USB from 'Charging' to 'File Transfer'

After that, Android File Transfer by whoozle is working again in macOS Monterey, even w/o a OS reboot :)
