Steps
- 1To begin, turn the phone on by pressing the Power button, located on top of the phone. Once the phone has been activated, we'll see the lock screen.

Advertisement - 3Now, we need to find the "Settings" menu. To do that, we need to swipe the notification panel down. To do that, start right at the top of the screen and swipe down.
- 4Now that the notification panel has appeared, here is the icon we're looking for. In the top right-hand corner of the screen, there is a white cog icon. This is our settings icon. Press down on it, and it will open up our "Settings menu".
- 5We can see it says the word "Settings" in the top left-hand corner of the screen.
- 6Now we'll scroll down until we get to the "PERSONAL". We can see it says the word "PERSONAL" here in the gray bar.
- 7The option that we are looking for is the "Accessibility" section located here. Next to it is an icon of a hand. Press down on this section.
- 8Once we are in the "Accessibility" menu, we are looking for the top option, "TalkBack". It will bring us to the TalkBack area.
- 9This is the area that we want to check the settings for. To do that, we need the icon in the top right-hand corner of the screen. There are three small white squares in a vertical line. Press down on that, and it will bring up our menu.
- 10There's only one option, "Settings". Press down on that.
- 11Now we want this option here, "Keyboard echo". The TalkBack function allows the HTC One M8 to talk to us. It can tell us what the buttons are, and read text to us. It's very useful for people with limited vision or blind people. What the "Keyboard echo" function does, is when we are typing, every time we touch a key the HTC One M8 is going to tell us what it is. For example, if we press the letter 'A', the HTC One M8 is going to say "A". We can edit this function to behave the way that's right for us. Press down on this section, and a menu with three "Keyboard echo" options will appear.
- 12We have three options to choose from. The option that is currently selected says "Always speak typed keys." The green circle is here, which means that this is the selected option. The second option is, "Only for on-screen keyboard". The third option is, "Never speak typed keys." This is the other extreme within these options. It will never speak typed keys. Every time we press a key, it won't say anything. Depending on our level of vision or depending on why we are using this TalkBack feature, we can edit this choice based on our own preferences and needs. Press down on the option that we want. Let's press on "Never speak typed keys".
- 13Now we can see here, it says the option that we selected. To change it, press down on the section again, and make our choice.
- 14This concludes our tutorial on how to edit the keyboard echo setting in the TalkBack feature on an HTC One M8.
