Any portable app for two-way sync with MTP device?

MTP = Media Transfer Protocol
Almost all unrooted Android smartphones and tablets that you plug in to your PC now do not give you a drive letter. Instead, you see an intelligible name that corresponds to the device, and you can perform some basic file operations on the device storage. That's MTP, the monstrocity that M$ has blessed us with.
Except all file-sync software that I have tried so far do not work with MTP mounts.
Imagine you have photos on your PC and photos on your smartphone that you are trying to keep in sync both ways i.e. photo deleted on your PC will be deleted on your smartphone, new photos added and vice versa.
And over the frigging wire please. Wifi is just too slow for file transfers, especially when video clips are involved.
Please, any solution at all?!
