Turn old phone into media/music player ( with custom rom? ) (feddit.de)

I know i could leave it stock, but i wanted to remove features it will not need, and have something that can use bluetooth speaker to play music, and i dont have to worry about it being stolen or damaged.

Streaming is not an option for me, first because i oft work either underground or in places with so bad reception that the battery goes down fast.

Shelling out 400€ for FiiO would be nice, but then i would not leave my shiny fiio lying around on construction sites. I would use my fiio m5, but for some reason it stopped seeing bluetooth devices and cannot pair at all ( updated to the latest possible fw, nothing helps )

Any other ideas ?

I did this for my previous phone. Used as an mp3 player, remote control, and a media streaming device. You can use the Android developer mode to disable a lot of unnecessary bloatware.

I use Musicolet for mp3s. Have about 10000 songs on my phone
