I dont think I so much want this for my phone as for my homemade AndroidTV boxes. Losing the Linux functionality after switching from Kodi/libreelec had been my biggest pain point.
Can't wait to see my TV boxes show up in my Beszel dashboard!
Can you tell me more about these homemade android TV boxes? I built a really shitty front end to "turn" my Linux based mini PCs into a media streamer but it lacks things like Chromecast and reliability haha
I have two TV boxes, one is a Raspberry pi 4, the other is a pi 5. I installed KonstaKANG's android port for the Pi's. Depending on your familiarity with flashing the Pi's this video from Explaining Computers offers a way to get Konsta installed through PINN. Once they're up and running they act just like a cellphone. This remote works really well.
Install f-droid, and/or obtainium, and/or Aurora Store and you can install whatever apps you want on the box.
I don't personally use Chromecast, so I can't vouch for that working. Mine is more centered around consuming Jellyfin (jellyfin android tv app), youtube (newpipe), podverse, and Radiodroid
I really liked Kodi, but could never get it to correctly sync across devices so I finally went the android route. I've been pretty happy
Feel free to pick my brain if you have more questions
Ah okay. The Chromecast thing is a killer feature I've been looking for, my media PC that I have now is pretty good, just doesn't have that one thing.
