T-Mobile IMEI Unblocking Can Remove Your Smartphone Blacklist

If your phone is blocked on the network, a T-Mobile IMEI unblocking to remove iPhone and Android phone blacklist service will let you use your device again.

Getting an iPhone or smartphone that is blocked on the network is not fun but it’s still not too late to get it fixed (but you must hurry!) as it is possible to unblock the IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity).

Definition of IMEI Unblocking

If you’re new to this concept, there is a difference between unblocking and unlocking. A blocked iPhone or smartphone means the device is blocked on the network. An unlocked phone means you have the freedom to switch to any carrier.

Even if you have an unlocked iPhone or smartphone, if the IMEI is blocked, you won’t be able to use the phone. This is because the blockage is done on network level.

All carriers now share their databases therefore if your phone is blocked on one carrier, your unlocked phone won’t work on another network.

IMEI unblocking is a process to remove it from the blacklist and eventually allows you to use it back on the network again.
