Hi,
Your phone may be locked to its Network, that's why it shows "sim card not valid". In order to use other Networks, you need to unlock your phone. You can unlock your Nokia N70 using code.You can either get the unlock code from your service provider or from reliable online site. Superunlockcodes.com is where i unlocked my phone, they offered codes at affordable price, with simple unlocking instructions.

SOURCE: My N95 Nokia phone in offline mode, I cannot call.

try to check your phone profile settings,it maybe set to offline mode, if it is set to offline, select a different phone profile mode from the list of the options.

try also cleaning the contacts of your sim card card and try again. sometimes, dirt or dust can be a reason for your sim not to be recognized by your phone.

if you have done these steps, try your sim in a different phone and check if it can be recognized. try another sim to your phone if the sim can be recognized by your phone. in this way, you will have the idea of which of the two has a failure.

Testimonial: "1.Not taking general or silent or meeting mode through profile. shows x 2.put several sims, sims working in other mobile.3.all phone functions working"

Hello it is not a hard task....Please re-visit the mobile repairing shop and tell them to Unlock the phone.This is the only way.But remember before you visit mobile repairing shop check your phone's IMEI by typing *#06# when your phone is in stand by mode (during power on without sim card) and refer that the imei which is written on your phone back side is same or not.In case if the numbers are different tell them to repair the IMEI.Good luck.Thanks for visiting fixya

OFFLINE MODE

Offline mode means that your phone aint getting any signal from your mobile service provider's BTS. You need to check it from your mobile service provider if there's an ongoing outage, you need to check as well if the sim card is properly inserted. Try powercycling your phone.
1. Turn off your device.
2. Remove the sim, memory card and battery.
3. Wait for at least 2minutes.
4. Plug back the SIM card, memory card and battery.
5. Turn on mobile phone.
6. Check if you are still getting offline mode.
7. If so, try to insert your SIM card to a different phone.
8. If using a different phone for your SIM displays offline mode still,then its your SIM card which is faulty. If it works fine make sure that you inserted the sim properly or the SIM card slot might be faulty.

My nokia 5230 shows me am in offline mode, i need to come out of it

I think you are using the handset without sim if it is so try inserting a SIM Card and while trying to switch on phone it will opt you whether u want to continue with offline mode or not.......simply click on no and your handset will be out of offline mode

But if you have inserted the sim card and its still showing offline try going to profiles and select General mode from there....if it is changed then its superb and if not then visit your nearest service center to get the software updated for your device

Nokia e65 stuck in offline mode.

step 1>switch off your phone and turn it on again
step2>you should get a respond <: continue in offline mode>: select no
finally, i believe that everything should be ok.
if it doesn't there is alternative 2???/////


ALTERNATIVE TWO: this is useful for those who got INSERT SIM CARD RESPONSE.

WHY INSERT SIM CARD PROBLEM ?
my phone is 1yr and 6 months now and i discovered that as you remove and replace your Sim card numerous times, there is a big possibility that Sim card port will get expanded.

SOLUTION is very simple:.>>:1. buy a black solo tape
2. place it at the outer part of the sim card and use blade to cut exactly the same shape as the sim card.
3. finally stick the tape.



WARNING>>?do not stick the tape on where you have the Sim card service sensors.make use of your brain.
