Is this phone still worth anything?

I've got one lying around in a fair condition and running a custom ROM (guy's at work put it on 2+ years back) that is pretty awesome, but I don't know how to change ;)

Wondering if it's even worth getting rid of - or maybe something I can do with it? I read some have Kodi running on it - but I have a Kodi box.

I would repurpose it. I use an old tablet plugged into a stereo amp running only 2 apps: plex for mp3 playback from my server, and TuneIn for internet radio. Works great.

Gave mine to a friend.... I miss that phone.

It was probably the best value phone Samsung ever made

Old tech doesn't so much die as get passed on down the food-chain and, friend Dolby (and blaaislaai too) if either (maybe even both) of you are interested in a sale, I have a need for an old banger that can be pressed into service as a backup/passed on to the old folks to get them onto modern, cheap comms (WhatsApp, for ease of sending grandchild pix).

Amazed at the prices for second hand phones that most people ask for on gumtree/olx, old 2-4yr old phones that people still want upwards of 3k for.

Like new, only been dropped a couple of times.
