Android Sensory and Coordination Accessibility Help?

I bought an 8" Nuvision tablet on clearance.

I already had an Ipega 9023 controller, and hoped to use the controller to avoid having to deal with the touchscreen.

I used the developer tools trick to disavble the animation, and installed "night mode" to reduce the brightness. Because touchscreen brightness ranges from far too bright for me to look at to far, far, far too bright.

But it hasn't worked.

First, I can't start with the controller. I have to use the touchscreen to enable the controller, they don't always work together.

Second, I can't type whiile usng the controller, because the tablet detects it as a keyboard.

Third, I can't do everything with the controller.

Fourth, I can't start in "night mode" and even after starting "night mode," I can't reduce the brightness of the whole screen.

Fifth, I can't disable animation just by using the tools that are supposed to disable animation. Trying to navigate the home screen causes zooming, and slips in the pdf reader I'd installed can cause zooming. which triggers my migraines.

Is there any way to get Android devices to work, given my sensory and coordination issues? Is it something that better apps can help with, or something that only ending the plague of touch-devices could help with?
