I do:
Secondary camera (with OpenCam) *oss
Security camera (various software)
Alarm clock with custom audio files (tibetan bells make a very unobtrusive wakeup sound)
Guitar tuner & general audio recorder
Mp3 player while working in harsh environments
And it stays simless, in airplane mode, after a nice adb session where I uninstall just about everything I can. I could easily live without it, but I'm often glad to have it.
Are you plugging them in for permanent use? Or are you using them as mobile security cameras?
Around house. When in use, I piwer it with an old nook charger which I think is gentler on the battery.
I can always find a purpose for an old phone. But nothing on the Internet, unless it still gets updates.
