You can turn your old phone into a full blown server with this one. You can pay for no-ip service to make dynamic IP mapped to your domain and voila, free server of any kind.
Depending what Android phone you have, you can get some kind of KVM or QEMU system going on it with enough work.
Also this is pretty cool.
Hell, a 3 year old rooted android phone could do that... and more:

Are there easy uses for it that a slightly above average android could pull off?
I used the Servers Ultimate app a while back, and it seemed to work fairly well. It can run a ton of different protocols/services, many I didn't even know existed. Just keep in mind the use-case will have to allow for the low-power of the device.
Linked to the Pro version, but there's also a free one with the basics.

The app is called Servers Ultimate Pro in the app store. I got it for free during an Amazon app sale but I think it's worth the money. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.icecoldapps.serversultimatepro
You don't even need to put a distro on the device to have practically any kind of service you'd want to run on it...

Have you seen this app?
I bought it years ago (possibly on sale) and always meant to do what you've posted about, but never actually got around to setting it up.
Seems like it ticks many of your boxes.
I have a Moto Droid RAZR that I turned into a network media server. Using Servers Ultimate Pro I set up a DLNA server and use LocalCast from my M8 to cast content to my Chromecast.
Let's go further in explaining
A cell phone has one ip address for its own connections, when it makes a hotspot it is gets a second ip address assigned for that interface (you can verify this with your own devices)
When you connect to a hotspot you get a local ip assigned for the phones LAN
The phones as the gateway has its own ip on this lan and accepts data between it and other devices on it other then for the purposes of routing it to the outbound Network
If you use a app like pairvpn(here)or icecoldapps(here) to make a proxy or vpn server and connect a tethered devices to the server (over the local network created by the hotspot) the outbound ip for the data will change to the phones private one since as far as the network is concerned the data came from a app on the phone
You can verify all of this yourself if you do not trust me or my proofs in 10 mins, this is all possible because Android except later for the local network it creates a hotspot, if it did not accept packets routed to local IP (usually 10.0.0.1 or 10.0.0.0) this would not work
You may be able to side load something like https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.icecoldapps.serversultimatepro but it’s almost definitely not supported and not widely used, so it’s likely to be pretty fraught in terms of getting it to work.
Anyone tried it with Servers Ultimate Pro with Servers Ultimate Pack F ??
I remember using it for 2.0.3 and it worked like a charm!
Servers Ultimate Pro for Android - lets you spin up TONS of server types (SFTP, DNS, RSync, POP/SMTP, SMS Gateway, etc.) right on your phone. Also has a bunch of useful client tools. Most useful with root.
Attaching a NAS via USB would be defeating the point of a NAS. I would like to put a big external HDD on it and then be able to access that from other computers like it was a NAS. Could probably try running something like Servers Ultimate Pro, or some other NAS server app but I dont know how the functionality is or how they work on Android TV.
Did you mean SSH? If so, I haven't tried it. In addition, it seems to be supported by Beyond Compare which is definitely a plus.
What's a good application for it or did you mean Servers Ultimate already which has FTP support?

I just tried the Servers Ultimate trial and it seems that root access doesn't actually give you write permissions on the device either even when granted root. I believe this is only used for port forwarding, not actual file management.

stop overpaying, hell if you really want to splurge:
quad core, android 5.1, 5 inch screen and a 5Mp camera.
android phones are like Pi's these days, self contained mini computers that can be used as many different kinds of servers, they could be used as wifi enabled ip cameras for security and even as a baby monitor that alerts you when there is a sound.
pair that up with no contract plans or even free ones at ringplus and you could have an army of portable mini computers.

Wait for a sale
(I've never bothered to set them up, but they're supposed to be great! Unrelated: my Steam library! I have no social life! Yay!)
~~Link me: Ultimate Servers Pro~~
Edit: I messed up the name. Here is the proper link.
I could think of a proxy that blocks access to specific URLs. Look at Servers Ultimate Pro, has Tasker support.
Can you run Android apps? There's several DLNA server apps for Android. I like this one: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.icecoldapps.serversultimatepro

It's not really useful unless you know IT. Practical? No. Geeky? Very.
I think this gets on sale a few times a year: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.icecoldapps.serversultimatepro&hl=en
Hmm doesn't seem to have Apache.
