Our unlocking method via IMEI is permanent and the phone will never relock even if you update the software regularly.

A cell phone is blacklisted by the original operator when reported lost, stolen or due to non-payment. This blocking is not permanent and can be easily removed by contacting the network directly.

To find out if your phone has been reported, you can use our free preliminary IMEI check to see if your phone has been blacklisted due to theft, loss or unpaid bill.

For a more comprehensive check per network provider, request a full blacklist status phone check.

Unfortunately, neither doctorSIM nor any other unlocking company can remove a cell phone from the blacklist. Our cell phone unlocking services only network unlock the phone and cannot remove this additional security measure.

Only the network that reported the phone can remove it from the blacklist.

However, you will be able to use your unlocked LG on any GSM network in the world once the issue has been resolved.

Our IMEI-based method of unlocking LG cell phones works with all original software and future updates. Unfortunately, we will not be held liable if the phone has been modified in any way.

You will need to restore the phone to factory settings and assume the risks of having possibly altered key components of the phone’s software required to successfully unlock it.
