I just got a new phone (Sony Xperia 1 VI) and I'd like to replace the standard google apps with some open source alternatives. I already tried a bunch in the past, but not all of them feel quite right compared to the google apps. Lineage OS 21 has a few apps I'd like to try, especially the dialer and keyboard app. Do any of you know where I can get download them to install on any android phone?

Thanks!

Indeed, the devices has just been released so that is expected. I'm looking for a way to install the default LOS apps on the stock firmware

You'll probably want to get started building lineage OS from source, including the packages, or at least looking at the documentation

Thanks, I'll have to look into that. Only the calendar app seems to have a release, and that one has not yet been updated properly for the material you theming

You can also try LineageOS GSI for the time being.

I think it's fine for now as long as I can replace all the google apps
