   You can. You just don't have all the Google services. But with F-Droid   
   () there are alternatives - e.g. K9 Mail, OsmAnd,   
   DAVdroid etc..   
      
   And telephony, addressbook and calendar work without a Google account as   
   well. Also internet access is possible without Google as well.   
      
   With CyanogenMod or AOKP you don't get any Google stuff anyway - and it   
   also works quite well.
