NTFS became read-only if the file system was dirty, the Windows in hibernate state, or the Windows use fast boot which also hibernate the system. The solution was disable fast boot on windows 10 or use puppy kernel with NTFS3 kernel module support.

1. Lack of application framework consistency
2. Distro fragmentation on the following components:
* C library

Today, I have tried Linux Mint 21 Cinnamon (Vanessa) and no problemo!

Alternate solution:
Download FTP server app on Play Store and run the app
Then accessing the phone on Puppy using gFTP using the parameters given by the app
