    Dropped my beloved phone and the screen broke. I went to Best Buy and bought a temporary replacement phone(Samsung Galaxy J3) for about $60 but the girl said that I have two weeks to return it if I don't like it.

    I'm not sure if I sould buy another Galaxy S4(which is what I broke) or look for something else. I asked on Reddit if I could reflash my backup to a new phone, in case I do buy another S4.

    What phone would you suggest?

    Requirments
    -Has to be Boost Mobile(Sprint) compatible
    -Root Access Method Available
    -Around $200 or less
    -Cyangenmod - This is more prefered than required
    -Darker Colored(preferably black) - this is less of a requirment though

    My galaxy S4 is starting to mess up and I will probably just get another S4

    You can buy a brand new one for like $150

    I dropped mine today on the bus and its fine. Gotta love cheap Chinese smartphones they last about 2 years of hard use.

    Unfortunately for me, this phone isn't available anywhere for BoostMobile. I'm probably going to go get the LG Stylus 2. It doesn't look gay like this gold colored phone and it's a little bit faster, about the same price. No NFC though. No root options available right now but it looks like the Dirty Copy On Write exploit is what 'they.ve' been using to root phones in the basic rooting software people use. I compiled it a while back and tried it out on a non-root phone of mine without success. A port of Cynagenmod isn't that big of a deal, but root is.

    forreal?. I would be happy with an S4 for the next 10 years.

    I had one a few years ago and it cost me like $1000 new.

    Get an Honor 8. XDA-Developers have a partnership with Honor/Huawei. Much like the S4, you can pick your flavor. CyanogenMod, Resurrection Remix, or even EMUI since they've allegedly improved their stock ROM. The camera is supposed to be pretty good, as well.

    Personally, I'm thinking about upgrading to a Oneplus 3T.
