 Region code hack posted by firefoxsake, October 27 2010: | |||
Region free BDP-S470 (same as the BDP-S350 hack posted by mao141 - thanks) for DVD playback only, BD untested. Tested with a Code 1 DVD on a UK unit after being unlocked with the OneForAll URC-7950. Full procedure for the OneForAll URC-7950 remote is as follows: 1. Press DVD 2. Hold the magic button until the Power key flashes twice. 3. Press 0533 4. Hold the magic button until the red led flashes twice. 5. Press 994 6. Press Magic Key (don't hold) 7. Press 00189 8. Press 1 ( this sets it to key 1 - it flashes twice, if not repeat steps 4 to 8 ) 9. Hold the magic button until the red led flashes twice. 10. Press 994 11. Press Magic Key (don't hold) 12. Press 00255 13. Press 2 ( this sets it to key 2 - it flashes twice ) 14. Hold the magic button until the red led flashes twice. 15. Press 994 16. Press Magic Key (don't hold) 17. Press 00095 18.

Press 5 ( this sets it to key 5 - it flashes twice ) The remote is now programmed and ready to use, to make the BDP-S470 region free: 1. Use the Sony remote that came with the BDP-S470 player to bring the player out of standby, make sure there isn't a disc in it. 2. Press 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 on the OneForAll URC-7950 remote. The power light will start flashing. (blue middle light) 3. Put the player back into standby with the Sony remote. 4. Next time you turn on the player it will be region free for DVD playback.

The hack listed for SONY SDP-S470 also works with the one4all URC 3940 remote (readily available in Tescos). You just need to place a 2 in front of the very first code (it becomes 20533 instead of 0533). The rest of the instructions are identical. Happy Unlocking! Hannah | |||

I tried this with a OneForAll URC 3940, following the instructions exactly, with the code 20533, but the BDP-S470 doesn't even recognize the remote. I think it's suppose to react. So could it be the player's settings ? or is the URC 3940 just not working ? | |||
