Thanks!

Easy way out- install Kubuntu with KDE, it has a brilliant piece of software called KDE connect. It can connect in many different formats, will give on-screen notifications and monitoring of 'phone calls in real-time, folder discovery etc. Cut and paste file operations too (permissions allowing).
I have been using it since I had my old Samsung S3, so it works on really old Android versions.
It connects easily to my now 2-year old ZTE Axon Elite and a one year old Huwei too.
Cheers Tony.
