Unfortunately, I don't think these phones can use Orca at this time,
since last I knew, the at-spi libraries Orca needs don't support touch
interfaces. It is likely that if you could pair a bluetooth keyboard to
it, Orca may work as expected and you could navigate around the phone
using Orca's laptop keyboard layout, but just using it independently
without a secondary input device may not be possible at this time. And
then there's the problem of actually getting the keyboard paired to the
phone without eyeballs, which would be a challenge on its own. It would
really be nice to be wrong about this, but I just haven't seen any
developments that would make it possible to interact with a touch screen
using at-spi.
