Greetings,
Windows 7, my computer show the device as "Galaxy J2". How do i access this device from the command prompt? Thanks.

Why do you need to access it from command prompt? What are you trying to do so we can better assist if its even possible or not?

Thank you, I want to run eg. dir/s to analysis the files on the mobile phone.

You can't. At least, not easily.
Phones do not connect as Mass Storage devices. They connect, instead, via the Media Transfer Protocol. They don't appear as storage drives, but instead are interfaced via a different protocol. This is out of reach of the Command Prompt in general.
The only way to get this, I think, would be to root the phone and install some sort of software designed to allow the phone to be exposed as a Mass storage device instead of an MTP device.
Maybe it can be manipulated directly via Powershell?

You can install an SSH or Telnet server on an Android phone and open a console to it.

Thank you, I have installed telnetd on mobile. Please explain to me the steps how to use it. Thank you.
