Is anyone running KDEConnect under Fedora-21?
I have yum-installed kde-connect and kde-connect-devel and followed the (rather arcane) instructions at http://xmodulo.com/integrate-android-kde-linux-desktop.html. But when I click on System Settings=>Hardware=>KDE Connect on my Fedora-21 Thinkpad T510 laptop and then click on KDE Connect on my Samsung Galaxy S5 I am told that there are no AVAILABLE DEVICES.
I've tried disabling firewalld on the laptop, but that does not seem to help.
I am able to ping my phone from my laptop. (I am unable to ping my laptop, or any IP address, from the Terminal Emulator app on my phone.)
Any help or advice gratefully received.

It's working here (Fedora 21 on a Thinkpad T410 with several Android Nexus devices).
I created a service for the ports it needs and left the firewall running: https://community.kde.org/KDEConnect says "If you are behind a firewall, make sure to open the port range 1714-1764 for both TCP and UDP".
Also, is your laptop on the same network as your devices (i.e. are your devices connected to your wireless network with wifi, or using cell)?

Thanks for your response. I've got it working now, although I'm not sure what I did differently.

Sounds like something that should be part of the inastallation package (at least installing the service, enabling it is a matter for another policy discussion). Is the firewall service a file that can be shipped?

As a matter of interest, why does KDEConnect require 100 ports (50 TCP and 50 UDP) to be open? I never met another program with a similar appetite.
