Talkback enabled, phone is severely limited. By using a 2 finger up gesture on the lock screen, I managed to get the phone unlocked. Now I'm stuck. I have screens open, youtube playing (I didn't start it) and I can't do a thing. Everything is frozen. I won't reboot again, I"ve rebooted several times and I'll just be in the same situation. I've got to get this untested garbage turned off somehow. I can't do a thing, can't press any key to get to settings. I'm stuck on a "give talkback permission to make phone calls" dialog. Pressing cancel once, twice 3 times, doesn't work. Pressing home, other buttons doesn't work. Down gesture for notifications doesn't work. Please help. This phone is bricked garbage with this untested crap after 1 day.

I managed to get talkback turned off and the shortcut disappear after a lot of effort. Never again. An hour to get a simple thing accomplished. It is a Moto G14 running Android 14. If this thread can be closed, please do.
