This is what i've tried: 

   1. In Storage Adjustments i "enable the USB Disk".
   2. Connect The phone via USB cable to my Ubuntu Machine.
   3. Since it is not mounted as an normal USB storage device, i checked the syslog, getting this: http://pastebin.com/U4TikPb5

I can see /dev/sdb appear, but without any partition (i was waiting for a /dev/sdb1 partition to appear).

So, how can i "download" the files from my phone to my Ubuntu machine? Do i need to install some special driver? Note: 

   1. I have no SD reader in my machine.
   2. My Phone is the "Alcatel One Touch Fire".

Solved: 

1. Settings -> Storage -> Enable USB storage
2. Settings -> Storage -> Media storage -> SD Card Storage -> Share using USB

I only did step 1.

Thank you.

I use Fedora 19 without any problems to connect the phone SDcard as USB-device to my system. So I would think it should work for Ubuntu as well.

Have you tried to mount sdb1 manually (e.g. mount /dev/sdb1 /tmpmountdir) ?

What (if any) error message do you receive, if you try?

You will need to unlock phone, whereupon it will auto mount.

   1. I can't mount /dev/sdb1 because it doen't exist. There is only the /dev/sdb.
   2. If there is any "error" message, is the one in the syslog saying it is not an MTP device:
       mtp-probe: bus: 1, device: 7 was not an MTP device

   I did it, but didn't work.
