I just want to be able to transcode DSD in my phone so I can download DSD format files, e.g. from Blue Coast.
Any device connected to the internet can download DSD files, you need something like AudioGate which offers a choice of:

1) converting DSD to high-resolution PCM on the fly while playing the music file.

2) exporting DSD files converted to any PCM high resolution music format of ones choice (WAV, AIFF, FLAC, ALAC) that can be played by all music players including iTunes.

AudioGate AudioGate is available for free with KORG DSD recorders or with a twitter account.

Audogate will not work on an Android phone.

Do you also have a computer? If so transfer the DSD files you downloaded to your computer, use AudioGate on your computer to create 24 bit PCM files in the highest resolution of your Android phone, and then transfer the PCM files back to your phone.

If you don't have a computer, you can always buy a KORG portable DSD recorder which plays all high resolution DSD and PCM files.

Or an iBasso HDP-R10 portable DSD player. I believe it's Android-based.

The iBasso HDP-R10 is not a piece of software but hardware. You can find it on Amazon.

Note: it does not include phone functionality, as far as I'm aware, so you'd still have at least 2 devices..

Yes, I agree. Nothing would be more breathtaking than hi Rez over a junky low Rez device. The market for it would be huge.
No reason to be so negative. The numbers race in smartphones means that specs have been cranked up ridiculously fast, such that the current generation shoots 50 megapixel still images and 4K (3840×2160) video, and sports displays with higher resolution than HDTV: WQHD (2560×1440). Consequently, some expect mobile to play a serious role in the delivery of UltraHD video to the home.
