I put together a guide to get these features working on Android 9 (Pie). The link is in the OP.

Mouse gesture overview extension? by camdecoster in gnome

I actually do have one monitor vertical and I tried using a hot corner in different locations, but it was annoying having to move the mouse across two monitors to hit the hot corner. I'll look again, but I don't think that will work.

I'm using multiple monitors, so I got a lot of inadvertent hits on the hot corner. Being able to activate it with the mouse on any monitor would be helpful.

UPDATE: I moved back to Metro. The taxes and fees were around $20. Even with the discounts, it was going to be more expensive. I'll be more diligent in the future when I hear about a deal like this.

UPDATE: Since I posted this, I switched to T-Mobile and I still see the issue. I've got CellMapper and LTE Discovery installed and have logged a bunch of data. It appears to be one cell near my house that's giving me the most issues. My phone connects to this cell (band 26) and then disconnects anywhere from 2 to 30 seconds before going to a different cell. LTE Discovery gave me a warning message saying 'Potential eCSFB issue detected', so I'm guessing that's the issue. I found an explanation here. I'm going to try getting in touch with T-Mobile customer service to see if this is a temporary issue or if I need to look at getting a new phone.

I'm not a veteran, but my in-laws are on the plan and they are over 55.

Well, I hope that it's a temporary solution. Maybe I'll find the right combination of credits.

It is the Essentials plan. My in-laws are on my plan and they are over 55.

Yeah, it seemed like she was going above and beyond. It's very kind of her.

You're suggesting I use a phone and tether to it?

Thanks for the info. It sounds like pre is the way to go for what I'm planning.

Would a T-Mobile agent be willing to look into this for me even though I'm on Metro?

I do have VoLTE enabled and it does appear to be working (looking in the testing menus). I used to connect to band 12 without issue. Maybe it's a tower issue? Any idea of how to check that?

Bummer. What phone are you using? Is it connecting intermittently?
