If anything, can you PLEASE get this to an actual working and reliable level?

I'll be honest: lately it sort of mostly finally kinda seems to work, but for the first decade it just NEVER worked reliable.

The typical KDE conect experience has been:

I might connect a phone, works? Miracles! Finally! Next day, doesn't work anymore, refuses to ever work again.

So please. If you can make it work, AND keep it working, that'd be awesome!
