LG Volt, Boost Mobile Sim Card

[AC Question]

I have an LG Volt from Boost Mobile with no sim card. What kind of sim card do I need, where can I buy it, and how much will it cost? Thanks.

Welcome to Android Central! Are you looking to use some other carrier besides Boost? If so, you'd have to find out if the phone is locked. See this page: Wireless Service Checklist | Boost Mobile

No, I bought it from Amazon used, and the only thing I need is a sim card. And I plan on using Boost Mobile.

This is where you go to activate the phone: https://apps.boostmobile.com/boostApp/handsetIdentifier.do. I thing Boost still only allows you to use actual Boost Mobile phones on their network--they got rid of their Bring Your Own Device program a while ago. But if your Volt is a Boost Mobile phone, then it should work. Not sure how you get a SIM--you should give them a call about that. Did you check to see if the phone actually came with a SIM?
