I'm so desperately looking for a DIY portable device that does not suck to build my portable audio player, best case supporting android with any of the following custom roms:

  LineageOS
  CalyxOS
  GrapheneOS
  /e/OS

I even considered making a player myself using the T113-S3 SoC, unfortunately not having the required skills. There are so many people trying to build prototypes, but this seems to be a space that is not easy to manage.

Here is my personal favorite Audio Player base device, best I found so far:

Not Android, but it's an open-source music player:

Thank you. Yeah I did know that. For my use case it unfortunately is too clunky and it does not have headphone remote (afaik), but I really considered buying one, just in case it gets added.
In Android, headphone remote works out of the box... that's why I would like to use one. There is the HiBy M300, which in my opinion would be worth having a custom rom :-) Indeed there seems to be efforts.
