Yes they do, and that is the correct way to activate, a two finger split
but I can't remember if a double tap and hold or a triple tap and hold.
No I am not, I tried it and because it doesn't have a way I have found
to activate explore by touch properly, I always needed sighted
assistance. Cheaper to use talk back or spiel and buy The acapela
voices you want, they sound better anyway. there are eight
instructions, they launch different menus or nothing at all. They are a
contuious left and down, right and down left and up, right and up, up
and right, up and left, down and right, and down and left. I forget
what do except one opens a global menu to repeat last item and repeat
whole page, one opens the sstem tray, one opens recent apps, and one
opens a global menu to speak current item or spell current item.

Hey,
These instructions are awesome. I would assume the same instructions
apply for the Galacsy Nexus? When you first power up the phone, I
assume you place two fingers apart on the screen to activate talk
back? Are you using MA at all?
Thanks,
Nick

did you turn touch to explore on?
if so a single finger explores the screen, a two finger split up moves
down a list that doesn't fit on a page, a two finger split down moves
you back up, a two finger swipe right turns back a page and a two
finger split right turns the page forward. Double tapping launches
the app your finger is on, a double tap and hold opens a menu or lets
you drag the item to somewhere else on the page or to another page
either left or right. Go into accessibility and turn on allow Google
to download scripts to enhance web page accessibility. from the home
screen, find and double tap the phone icon, tap menu, find and double
tap call settings, find and double tap answer/end calls and double tap
to check both power button to end calls and answer calls using the
home button. Now when in a call, instead of locking the screen, you
can hang up with a press of the power button and when a call comes in,
tapping the home button answers it. a two split finger continuous up
and down, or down and up changes reading modes. Google talk back
gestures to get other talk back gestures to open notifications, read
whole page, etc.
That is basically it, you will be good from there and can explore at
will.
oh, if you haven't already done so, go to system settings and about
phone, check for system updates and take them. Jelly bean is awesome.
good luck and ask more when you need to.

Hello gang:
Thanks for all of the contributions on my previous post. I went ahead
and grabbed the Galaxy S-III. this is my first touch-screen phone
only and the learning curve is looking steep. Can anyone help with
general usage of the phone: receiving calls, making calls,
navigation, enough to get me going?
I had sighted assistance to turn Talkback on. so, I have speech.
Thanks.
