Not sure I have ever seen a situation like this. I can change the phone
from MTP to PTP mode but then all of the files do not show up (but I can
copy the files that do). I tried looking at this issue on the net but
all I got was noise.
Same on F20 with a Android 4.4 device, which implements only
MTP (media
device), whereas my old android was 2.3 and supported USB mass storage.
See eg:

With MTP, I find that I can:
- view the whole directory structure
- access all directories
- create new folders
- add new files.
- retrieve / move image files and audio files.
But not retrieve other file types, nor file types with "invalid" characters.
A workaround is to rename the file (eg ES file manager) on the device
and append either .jpg or .mp3. Then I can copy or move to local disk.
But I seem to remember that at one stage, I could read/delete/move files
using my Fedora20 machine.
