Important note for #blind users!
#CRDroid doesn't contain #gapps, there's no Talk Back available.
You have to download it manually and put it to your phone via recovery.
Also you'll need a TTS engine and this is kinda problem because I know no TTS which work out of the box without prior network access.
#Espeak needs internet to download language data on first launch;
#RHVoice needs internet for every new voice;
#Vocalizer is paid and needs the same;
The only option at least for Russian people is to download #FonTTS (modern implementation of #NewFon) and use it.
If you know totally offline TTS synthesizers for other languages, please share.
Also even if you put Talk Back and TTS via recovery they won't start via volume buttons.
You have to enable usb debugging via recovery and then, on welcome screen, via adb, enable Talk Back and set default TTS for speech output.
After that you're good to go as an usual user.
After the welcome process you'll see a standard #CRDroid launcher which is fully accessible and is very simple.
I use Microsoft Launcher on my primary phone but for the sake of battery and cpu optimization I'll stick to the default launcher on this old Samsung.
Some accessibility labels in the UI are not translated to Russian and some buttons on recent apps screen have no accessibility labels at all.
The left one is for share, the middle one is for force kill of current app and the right one is for closing all apps.
Or enable read identifiers in Talk Back and get English names of these buttons.
Btw, Jieshuo screenreader works fine on this phone and as usual is much much faster than Talk Back, so I switch to it and leave Talk Back as a backup method.
Advanced Braille Keyboard #abk works fine too and I'm happy about that :D
