If accessibility shortcut is turned on by default, then you should be able to activate Talk back without sighted assistance. Put your phone on a flat surface. Press and hold the power button for a couple of seconds. Then keep just 2 fingers on the screen. Make sure you put only 2 fingers on the screen. In a few seconds, you should hear a prompt that asks you if you want to enable accessibility, continue to keep holding the 2 fingers on the screen, in a few seconds, talk back should be enabled and you should get a prompt that accessibility is enabled. If it doesn't work, you would need sighted assistance for the first time use, Go to settings/accessibility. In there get the person to turn talkback on. Most new phones now come with TTS Engin installed. You get the Google TTS by default, you can download other TTS from the Playstore later. There is the free eSpeak TTS available that is developed by the Eyes-Free Group that is Google's accessibility team. Some other TTS Apps like Ivona are available as a trial beta for now. Hope it helps.
