Typically you have to do none of that.
On a recent system, I did following.
yum install kde-connect
systemctl disable firewalld
You might want to stop firewalld and see if it works and if it does it
is your choice to judicially disable it or open the ports for
kde-connect.
Thanks for your suggestion.
I'm actually running shorewall.
As far as I can see, with my settings any communication
between hosts on my local WiFi network should be allowed.
But in any case I tried "sudo shorewall clear",
and this did not help.
Incidentally, after saying "kbuildsycoca4 -noincremental"
I got the following warnings
-------------------------------
[tim@rose Android]$ kbuildsycoca4 -noincremental
kbuildsycoca4 running...
kbuildsycoca4(20981)/kdecore (services) KServicePrivate::init:
The desktop entry file "/usr/share/applications/LabPlot.desktop"
has Type= "Application" but also has a X-KDE-Library key.
This works for now, but makes user-preference handling difficult,
so support for this might be removed at some point.
Consider splitting it into two desktop files.
kbuildsycoca4(20981) KConfigGroup::readXdgListEntry:
List entry Keywords in "/usr/share/applications/kde/kresources.desktop"
is not compliant with XDG standard (missing trailing semicolon).
