I am wondering whether I could live without the GApps provided I still use Google/GMail services.
In particular I would like to know how to get to the "contacts" (phone book) and "keep" (notes) data, as email and calendar seem not to be an issue.
The main objective is to avoid installing the "google play" services.
Any idea/reference/hint?
TIA.
