This is also an issue on a Pixel 4a running Android 13. I'm guessing that Sequoia must have broken some important APIs?

I can confirm its working just fine on Mac OS Sequoia 15.1 (24B83)

tested with mi A3. If not done already see if upgrading to 15.1 helps with things. I came to know about openmtp just today so cant comment if the issue existed before in my setup.

Re: Problem linking android phone to Mac after updating to Sequoia 15.1.1
I found the problem was not USB cable or phone system settings - rather, it was the Mac. What corrected
things for me (allowing my phone to be "seen" by OpenMTP) was to do the following:

• Remove the USB cable / phone from the Mac
• Restart the Mac
• Plug the USB cable / phone into the Mac
• Launch OpenMTP on the Mac
  The good news is that I only had to do this once. That is, on subsequent days I've been able to connect phone & Mac
  without having to first reboot MacOS.
  Hope this is helpful.
