I turned Talkback off and booted my phone using BRLTTY. Yes it comes up
before the password prompt. It is tricky to understand, but using a
comination of a Bluetooth keyboard and BRLTTY, I was able to log in.
Then I started Talkback again. If you play around with it, you can
probably figure it out.

Hi all,
It's been several years since I emailed this list and since I've tried
Brltty with android. But here's my question. Let's say, at this point,
it's a hypothetical, I decide, "Talkback's too slow for me, and not
powerful enough. I want to use Jieshuo, (Commentary Screen Reader)".
Now, let's also say that we want braille display support with Jieshuo,
which at this point isn't possible. In theory, Brltty could be used,
but I have a very important question that either makes or breaks my
workflow. Does brltty get booted before the passcode prompt comes up?
If it does, then this setup could actually work! Jieshuo and brltty
could work together so I can use my braille display during the enter
password part. My password is not a 6 digit numeric passcode. It's a
16 character alphanumeric password, and typing using the on-screen
qwerty keyboard is a nightmare! I know Talkback braille keyboard
doesn't work if you're not using talkback, and the same thing applies
for advanced braille keyboard. Any tips, tricks, and suggestions would
be greatly appreciated for this weird, frankenstein setup! I want to
use this setup because with talkback and documents, reading and
editing it in braille, if the document is long enough, can and will
straight up crash talkback, the braille display, or both. I'm using my
HumanWare NLS eReader over Bluetooth.
Regards,
Zach
