There usually will not be obvious signs of a trace. If your phone is warm when it shouldn't be, or has dramatically decreased battery life with no increase in usage, it might be bugged.

Also, if you have a GSM phone, and your phone causes speakers (e.g. from a stereo or computer) to buzz when you are not on a call, then it might be tapped.

Of course, there are other reasons that could cause any of the above situations.

Tapping a cellphone can be done with third party software. The application FlexiSPY works on Windows Mobile, iOS, Symbian, and Blackberry. FlexiSPY allows one to engage in illegal activities such as listening in on phone calls and viewing emails sent from the target phone.

Can a boost mobile cellphone be tapped?

Yes, for some values of "tapped." The radio communication between a cell phone and a cell tower is encrypted... you could theoretically capture it off the air, but it wouldn't do you much good. However, in order to turn it back into a phone call instead of something resembling static, the service provider has to be able to decrypt it at that point, and it could be tapped there.
