Everything after the unique character code is just tracking stuff. You can read it by variable=value and than either a ? or an & for each additional variable.
Get a trial SIM to test the service out, if you're satisfied with the service then I would recommend you to switch over.
One thing to note is Mint runs on the T-Mobile network and has no roaming, so coverage might be worst than Verizon. You can refer to the coverage map to make sure that you're covered.

Activate the 7-day trial SIM, which will give you a cell number good for a week, which you can use for verification of GV.
I’m using the PS4 Remote Play app to stream it to an iPhone XS Max.
You can play with your phone vertical or horizontal and use touch controls if you need to, but you can also super easily connect a PS4 controller via Bluetooth.
I saw this phone holder for the controller in a reddit thread and it’s really simple and works great.

Really, because I can pick up last year's Galaxy S8 for less than $500.
And you can go online and find new V30s for $500.
Well first of all i'm from EU and the X costs 1159€ here. Just look on ebay (that's where i got mine from) https://www.ebay.es/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2380057.m570.l1313.TR12.TRC2.A0.H0.Xgalaxy+s8.TRS0&_nkw=galaxy+s8&_sacat=0 you can find brand new S8 on the range of 530 - 550 easily and here on EU that's half of what the X costs.
If you are from NA look at amazon https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Galaxy-S8-Unlocked-64GB/dp/B06Y14T5YW/ref=sr_1_1?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1510623910&sr=1-1&keywords=galaxy+s8&dpID=417dUvGor3L&preST=_SX300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch 520$ for a S8.
You cannot seriously compare buying a phone off Swappa to a phone for $500 new.

If you did a quick amazon search you would’ve found this as the first result.
She's going to make friends so she's going to want a local number. That's not to say that there aren't options like WhatsApp, but it'll make life easier for whatever official things she may need to do with a local number.
For yourself, I've picked up sim cards from Amazon for European travel. Stupid cheap for gigs of data from 3UK, with international roaming for pretty much all of Europe. I'll go find the link and edit my post.
So I was able to get a 20% off code and signed up through the website and have a tracking code. I have a few questions on how to properly sign up for T-Mobile:
When I go on the promotion status site to check it, it says Tampa, FL for the location, but I'm in Dallas, TX. Will this be okay? It did take my phone number when I signed up and my email, and I printed out the confirmation page with tracking ID. Also, how long will it take for me to see the 20% discount for life on my bill?
I'm switching over from Verizon and have an iPhone 6s Plus, and will be porting my number over. I want to go about this properly and need a SIM card. Can I purchase this Amazon prepaid SIM card and activate it on the T-Mobile One Postpaid account with my 20% off discount?: https://www.amazon.com/T-Mobile-Prepaid-Complete-SIM-Kit/dp/B00LPPHHFK/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8 If not, where can I purchase a correct SIM card?
How do I activate the SIM card once I get it and transfer my number? Do I need to call in or can it be done online?
Can I also sign up for the "17SWITCHER" $150 gift card promo and stack the coupon? If so, do I just go on the T-Mobile Promotions site and enter that before or after I sign up? How long does it take to receive the card via mail?
Thank you in advance!

Mint Mobile trial sim. $5 on Amazon. Trial includes 100MB of 4G LTE data, 100 text messages, and 100 minutes of talk—all of which is good for 7 days after activation. Activate it with a random number. Test coverage for a week. Then throw the sim away and decide if you want to move your mom to t-mobile (or Mint Mobile if you don't need postpaid luxuries).
Here's the SIM Starter Kit you need on Amazon
Just follow the kit's instructions and get select the right plan. It's only there for new activations. The only issue you might have is porting out your number if you want to keep it. You can port it to Google Voice and back to the new account. That's probably the best and cheapest option.
plus, one thing to remember is that, while on paper the switch is less powerful than current smartphones, it's also selling at a much lower price. at the moment a galaxy s8 is 600 dollars on amazon
but usually selling at over 700 dollars, while the switch is less than half of that at 300 dollars
(https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=nintendo+switch)
You can also get one from amazon for $9.99 instead of the $25 if that doesn’t end up working, probably can find some way cheaper on eBay, just make sure they are not expired.
If you aren't using an IO board you need either an HDMI audio extractor, or an HDMI switch that can also do the audio extraction.
https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B07H94D77V/
IMO if you are going to use other devices on that display that only have HDMI out, then an extractor makes sense. If the MiSTer is the only device, I feel the IO board is the better option. An extractor is roughly 40% of the cost of an IO board without the additional features the IO board will give you.
I did just that, today actually. Got a Moto G4 on amazon (with prime) for $125 after an additional random prime discount. Great phone for the price. I'm also rationalizing it as a test phone for Android in general, as I am beginning to see the writing on wall that this platform is truly (and sadly) on its way out.

Good for 1 week and hope it google doesn't block the number or gmail for creating multiple GV numbers.
​
But if you need permanent sort of number then cheapest is Red pocket $30 plan for 1 year on Sprint with effective $2.5 pm. Or Tracfone annual plan which varies from $30 to $60 for one year plan. Or Liberty Wireless $60 1 year plan for call and text but you won't be able to make outgoing from that with GV number as to reroute, GV needs internet and that plan doesn't include internet. Or $5 pm plan from HelloMobile on Tmobile which have 500/500/500 pm. Or Tello plans starting at $5 pm on Sprint.

I have one and they're great! Compatible with nearly any Smartphone.
Edit: Sorry I didn't see the part about the keyboard. Not sure if it will facilitate that.
Yes, but you might have to call 611 to do it as the option is removed from the website most of the time.
The same as BestBuy is also available on Amazon w/prime shipping: https://www.amazon.com/T-Mobile-Prepaid-Complete-SIM-Kit/dp/B00LPPHHFK/
SIM cards aren't used to store info for smartphones. You most likely have no info on it.
Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/T-Mobile-Prepaid-Complete-SIM-Kit/dp/B00LPPHHFK/
or go to a T-Mobile store and get one for $20
You can also try cutting your SIM to fit the Nano size, but it isn't entirely safe to do.
You can pick up a starter pack with a week of service for $5 on Amazon. Just check it out for yourself. If you decide to sign up, they even give you back the $5.

That's a USB 3 micro port. The bigger side is the same as a normal USB micro, the smaller part is the extra pins that are in USB 3 ports.
Edit: here's an example for reference https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-USB-3-0-Cable-Male/dp/B00NH13G5A
What about a regular Chromecast + an HDMI audio extractor? It's a bit pricier than the old Chromecast Audio was, but it should work, and you get the option of optical or line-out.
Here is the link to check out the specs. It's not just a fan that clips on top. It's a whole faceplate that's basically the same as VR cover. It will even fit VR covers foam pads.
Did you buy your iPhone straight from Apple? It's best to buy iPhones straight from the manufacturer as they come unlocked.
I would suggest you try Mint service first, then commit to a plan. Mint has a trial kit on Amazon for $1.
If you do decide to switch over to Mint then to get the most savings you'll have to commit to a year-long plan.
Test Mint out first by ordering a trial kit, and if it works for you you can switch over to a plan.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0786RD524
Also to note, Mint sells plans in bulk. This means paying for a whole year’s worth of service upfront.
Ghost Blade is ok, nothing special. Not one of my favorites, but I’ve honestly not spent too much time with it. It looks nice, that’s for sure. For audio I used an HDMI audio extractor like this:
avedio links 4K@60Hz HDMI Audio Extractor, HDMI to HDMI + Optical Toslink SPDIF + 3.5mm AUX Stereo Audio Out, HDMI Audio Converter Adapter Splitter Support HDCP1.4 Full HD 1080P 3D https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07H94D77V/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_JFT0F2T1SD3VHJAKTHX6
You can but it won’t be the greatest experience if those bands are heavily used in your area. I would recommend getting a Mint 7 day trial SIM from Amazon for a buck first and making sure that you have coverage.
Mint Mobile See for Yourself Kit | Verify Compatibility with Our Talk, Text & Data Plans (3-in-1 GSM SIM Card) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0786RD524/
I'd get the See-For-Yourself kit on Amazon. Trust me. I didn't, and the coverage & speeds are spotty in my area, but looked perfect on the map.
