F-droid also has the ability to use more than one repository. Applications can also be installed manually trough adb or by downloading the apk and installing it by clicking on it. When you do that if the setting allowing third party applications is not enabled, it will make you go in security to enable it. Once this is done you need to find again the application and click on it to install it, or if you don't find it, redownload it and install it by clicking on the downloaded file again. This procedure is also valid to install f-droid on most/all android devices that way. > Does anyone know of a goods source of information for installing > Replicant On this phone? Unfortunately the S8 Edge is not supported yet by Replicant. To be supported, someone needs to work on adding support for it. Depending on the device that can be very easy or a lot of work. If the S8 Edge that you have: - is already supported by LineageOS - is similar enough to other devices supported by Replicant - has a similar list of proprietary libraries in LineageOS to other devices supported by Replicant Then it should be easy enough to do with some small help for adding support for the modem in libsamsung_ipc. Else if you don't intend to work on it you may be able to document it in this page: https://redmine.replicant.us/projects/replicant/wiki/TargetsEvaluation Wikipedia and lineageOS source code (if applicable) has the interesting information.
