Bug Description

I recently obtained an LG VS950 android phone and find that it is not recognized by the libmtp9 release in trusty. I contacted the maintainer and he added support to git for the 1.1.10 release, but this does not get my phone connected. The fix is simply adding the information about the phone to a single file. The patch is:

I had posted to the ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list and was told that this was appropriate for an SRU
