Okay, I finally have the Braille Sense working on the phone. However, it is
displaying in computer braille, despite the contraction table being set to
Grade Two in the settings menu. What's missing? Does the App not come with
contraction tables? Something needs to be set on the Braille Sense?

The phone doesn't appear to come with any sort of file manager and I can't
navigate the onscreen keyboard to sign into google to purchase one.
There are several good Android file managers that are free.
How can I get into a command prompt on Android to install the Brltty app?
It's
based on Linux, so there has to be one somewhere. Right?
Yes, and no. Android may be based on Linux, but it doesn't provide a full
Linux
command environment. It also doesn't have any kind of login concept.
It's much easier to install brltty from your host using the adb command of
Android's SDK. There are notes on brltty's web site on how to do this. Go
to
brltty.com, click on Download, and then on Android. There you'll find the
latest apk for brltty, as well as the document I'm referring to (named
Using
BRLTTY on Android).
Let us know if you have problems with the process.
