Never heard of this before unless the x-boyfriend works for a mobile phone company or the police or security forces (or has a friend who does).
Theoretically though if he knows the mobile number, and if it's an internet connectable phone, then he could maybe get something downloaded to the phone, in the same way that a ringtone is sent, and that something could be used as a backdoor.
But I stress that's theoretically, I don't think it's actually ever been done, and he would need to be extremely clever to achieve it. Also I think your sister would have to physically accept it when it came through (though it could be disguised as something legit perhaps).

Sounds like she might need to have her cellular provider look at the phone. I am not aware of any type of monitoring software that can be installed remotely and run without any user intervention. I would belive it more if she were using a Blackberry and it was attached to a Blackberry Enterprise Server, but this does not sound like the case.
