I’m not the person you replied to, but I would love to have more ARM hardware for running tests on. A lot of what I write needs to be separately tested on each architecture.
Removing all the system-level bloat that makes them unpleasant to use, perhaps stripping one down to the level of a fancy MP3 player with its microSD slot. Also having “disposable” phones to play with various rooted tweaks. All of my easily-rootable phones are too valuable as daily drivers to experiment on, while all of the ones I don’t care about also don’t have rooting methods yet.
What would you use the old phones for out of curiosity?

A middle finger to those you’re jailbreaking from.
