When I connect my Android phone to my Ubuntu 14.10 computer (Gnome Flashback), it connects without errors, and a Nautilus window opens:
I went into Phone/Music
directory, and I wanted to create a new folder named Playlists
, because I'm trying to get Banshee to sync music, and I read that having a folder called Playlists
might help. Nautilus let me create a folder called Untitled Folder
, but then when I tried to rename it to Playlists
, I got this error:
The item could not be renamed. Sorry, could not rename "Untitled
Folder" to "Playlists": libmtp error: could not set object property
list.
How do I get flawless MTP connectivity to my phone from Ubuntu?

You are using v1.1.6 of libmtp which is not the very latest; in Vivid version 1.1.8 is available.
You could try a new version of libmtp to see if this resolves your issue (it could be a bug in that particular versioin) - one such source is my PPA:
If this doesnt work for you, rollback using ppa-purge
