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 ?
If you have any music on your computer, an old clickwheel iPod is the way to go
Do they need itunes to tranfer music or its like on fiio - aka plug the cable, copy stuff with totalcommander if you like
Is rockbox still a thing?
I use iTunes. There might be other ways to load music, but I’m not sure how to go about it
Well what phone is it? There are tons of music playing programs on f-droid. Why not just run one? I’ve been using Vanilla Music. I don’t like it that much, but don’t feel like derping around trying more and more of them. Vanilla is better than some others that I tried.
custom rom is really difficult for a lot of phones.
I have the same idea on my mind for a while but seeing how messy the Android space is (mix of gamers and tinkerers), how heavy it is to compile a ROM (250Gb of data), knowing how shity vendor shares - if any - drivers… I feel that it would be better to throw away (in a recycle park of course) that ie: samsung s4 an buy a basic music player.
it’s sad that it is so difficult to build a minimal ROM for an obsolete but still powerful smartphone.
Doesn’t it just work as-is? Upload your songs or use Spotify pro to download what you want locally and then just dance away.
similar idea but just don’t use Spotify, use local storage.
