Got tired of old phones sitting in drawers while cloud storage subscriptions keep getting more expensive. Android phones have decent multi-core ARM64 silicon, built-in battery backup (UPS), and low idle power consumption, so I automated the whole self-hosted stack deployment into a single bash routine.

Repo: https://github.com/huzefdev/pocket-cloud

1. FileBrowser (:8080) - Lightweight web UI to upload, stream, and manage internal phone storage directly like Google Drive.

2. Syncthing (:8384) - Background continuous folder syncing between PC/phone nodes.

3. Jellyfin (:8096) - Media streaming server running inside an isolated Ubuntu PRoot environment with FFmpeg codecs configured for hardware playback.

Running Jellyfin natively on Termux hits nasty dependency walls and broken shared library links (especially with curl/ffmpeg codecs). Instead of fighting Android bionic libc quirks for hours, the installer spins up an isolated Ubuntu container inside PRoot for the media engine, while keeping FileBrowser and Syncthing running directly on Termux bare-metal for maximum IO throughput.

Also handles Android wake-locks so the OS scheduler doesn't kill the server daemons 5 minutes after locking the screen.

curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/huzefdev/pocket-cloud/main/install.sh | bash

The script is non-destructive, checks existing mount points before binding storage, and lets you choose which modules you want to deploy interactively.

Code is completely open-source. Looking for feedback on process management and memory footprint on low-RAM devices

Its has 4 channels

Boost

Buck

3.3v and 5v

-12v

It takes me to build this in 2 days not full after done my other project work

I built custom enclosure for that and more

I built custom enclosure for that and more

Now I tested my own diy dc variable powersupply it has 4 channels

​

1st boost channel: 12v to 35v (it can go like 40 to above voltage but the meter is turning off on 35.6v)

​

2nd buck channel: 0.0v to 11.2v variable also ampere max to 12a in this channel

​

3rd channel has dpdt toggle switch of constant voltage to 3.3v to 5v for electronic component uses

​

4th channel -12v blue channel direct: for audio amplifiers uses

​

This is my own diy work I will upload a video soon

built this cyberdeck completely from scratch using a custom PVC chassis. I didn't buy an expensive display; instead, I used my mobile phone and paired it with a screen magnifier module that cost me less than $2

The structural sheets weremade manually by heating and flattening a standard PVC pipe, which cost round $1 Right now, I'm running Linux on my phone, and the terminal environment is operating smoothly with a full keyboard and mouse setup Total cost of materials is under $3.What do you guys think?
