I just got an Ace 2 last week, and now I'm sitting with the very same problem: It always connects via MTP as soon as the cable is put in. To make it using UMS, I have to go to settings->wireless & networks->usb, select UMS, and then plug in the cable. Each time! No way to make it default... :( | |

As there are plenty of Tasker/Locale addons around: Maybe there's another one that can do? There's a list of apps supporting Tasker (plus other material on this) at this AndroidPIT thread (German), to make it easier to isolate/find them on the playstore... | |

| Nov 27, 2012 at 7:39 | comment | added | Izzy | As for MTP, you will need some special packages on your Ubuntu workstation (suggest to go AskUbuntu for that part). To switch USB mode automatically, you might want to take a look at Tasker (7 day trial on homepage) plus SecureSettings. Not sure if that specific setting is available, which is why I post this as comment ;) | |
