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. Contact your service provider and get the unlock code for your Nokia N73 and unlock your phone. In case, if they don't give you the code, you can get it from online sites. Try Theunlockarena.com ,they provide codes at affordable price!!

SOURCE: N95 on offline mode, not coming in general or

hi malik, you're still having the same problem though, now you know that your phone has the error..
try these steps on your N95 phone.
1. on your keypad, press *#7370# for soft reset
2. then, insert your sim back, check if your sim has been recognized, if it doesn't do step 3,
3. on your keypad, press *#7780# for hard reset once finished, insert your sim back and switch on. if the phone still doesn't recognized the sim, then do step 4.
4. on your keypad press *, 3, call key and power switch at the same time, to make a hard formatting on your phone and setting it back to its factory setting.
>> under above steps, you need to make sure that, battery is fully charge, if not, fully charge battery before doing all the steps above. don't forget to remove your sim every time you do the steps (so as the sd card if your phone has it).
>>>please make a note that, if all of the above steps has failed,or nothing happened and still you have the same issue, then go now to a phone repair shop and have them check your phone, it can be a hardware problem. if your phone is still under warranty, try not to do the steps above, instead, go back to that phone store and return your phone and show them your problem, so they can immediately replace it.
>>>also, make sure that your phone is network unlock and can be use with other network sim.

good luck.

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.

Nokia offline

where did you bought your phone? if you bought it from a telecom's promo it means that your phone is locked to a single network provided only. you can ask a technician to have your phone OPENLINE for you to be able to use any kinds of sims.
if it's not the case, check the slot for sim and make sure that the sim is properly placed. restart it without the sim and then restart again but now with the sim.
