As you may have known, Sprint is shutting down the iDEN network in 2013. As a result Boost Mobile iDEN phones will be phasing out and stop working.

We found the following replacement CDMA phone working with AccuTracking:
--------------------------------------------------------------
    Boost Mobile Kyocera/Sanyo Innuendo
    Boost Mobile Samsung Factor
    Boost Mobile LG Rumor Reflex (Not recommended due to network stability issue)
--------------------------------------------------------------

We urge all iDEN users to upgrade as soon as possible because iDEN cell towers have already been reduced or shut down in some region.

You can have the same pay-as-you-go plan with Boost Mobile, with the $0.50/day "web add-on".

The software is same as the Sprint CDMA version and can be directly downloaded to the phone. Here is the Installation Guide:
.

[IMPORTANT NOTE]: The replacement phones above all require AccuTracking app to be in foreground to keep tracking. The phone cuts off network connections for background apps after about 15 minutes.

Another option is to go with dedicated GPS trackers (with a prepaid AT&T or T-Mobile SIM card). We support many low cost trackers: http://support.accutracking.com/kb/article/000104

[UPDATE 09/14/2012]: There's another replacement phone: Samsung Replenish Android phone. It's listed as $79. However, Boost Mobile does not have pay-as-you-go plan for this phone because it's a smart phone. The lowest monthly plan is $55.

Any suggestion from anyone about getting a new replacement phone for iden 425. I would like to get one with a EXTENDED battery that could last for a month or more before needing recharge

If it's intended for long time tracking, you might want to take a look at a non-phone GPS tracker (we support many). Most of them last longer than a phone; some of them can be directly wired to vehicle battery/outlet, or connect to an extended battery pack with minimal or no hardware mod.
