What do you mean? Usually every conversation will have different topics so you can’t ask exactly what sentences to use you know what I mean? I guess one common phrase would be “how are you?” So 「元気ですか？」but I always say this as a joke lol.
Have you started a beginner Anki deck or something like that? Conversations can go in a million directions so it might be better to focus on learning japanese as a whole including grammar, vocabulary, listening, and reading. That way you can just talk about whatever you and the other person like!
I am a big fan of the Tango Anki decks starting with Tango N5. They are set up in an i +1/1t format which means they teach you with sentences but every sentence only has 1 new word. That way you see the words and grammar you have learned over and over in a natural way. I used them myself and then moved in to sentence mining later on to get to a good level of japanese. https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/866090213
When it comes to starting japanese I pretty much agree with everything in this video except I prefer the free Migaku Kanji God addon Anki addon over RTK. The addon creates RTK style cards which are based on the kanji coming up in your Anki decks. https://youtu.be/L1NQoQivkIY
Unfortunately, you need to learn grammar and vocabulary so that you can create sentences on your own. Memorizing phrases will not get you through a conversation
もしもし、ワタシです。 Hello, it is me.
That way everyone will know it’s you who’s calling, and not someone else.

たすけてください – Could you please help me with this?
Xはぜったいあけらめない – I need to do X.
おまえはもうしんでいる – Goodbye.
Just the classics… *grin*
