I have purchased the BD-F5100 after reading the hack mentioned, but haven't been able to successfully hack my machine. Would anyone be able to confirm that the information is correct and what remote they were using. I have the one that is shipped AK59-00149A. | |||

Hi. I know this is not what this part is for but I am really struggling. I purchased the Samsung BD-F5100 Bluray player and I am unable to get the hack to make it DVD multi-regional, I am in the UK (region 2) and all the hacks I have tried haven't worked. Has anyone got it to work on a UK model ? Please help. | |||

For Samsung BD F5500: Follow rtalaman protocol, EXCEPT use the "REPEAT" button to the right of the "A/B REPEAT" button instead of the "A/B" button. This worked for me first try on a Mexican bought BD F5500, after no results with any of the protocols posted previously. | |||

This is for the Samsung BD-F5500 3D Blu Ray. The hack posted by BillKG worked for me, exactly as posted by him. I live in South Asia, region code 53814. Specifically, follow rtalaman's protocol, except, don't press the A-B button, but press the blank button to the right of the A-B button. This worked on the second try for me. Make sure to sit close to the DVD player. If you're sitting at a normal distance, the player may miss sensing a push of the button on the remote, in which case it may not work. | |||

I am from India and tried this on my samsung BD 5100. Worked perfect just in 2 tries. As someone says sit close to the DVD player so that it gets all the digits. And yes instead of repeat use the black button in the very last row of buttons on the remote. This black button is between A-B and Screen buttons. Worked like a charm. Remember to do a power recycle after pressing the last 9 and trying out outher region disc. | |||

If it helps, I found an old firmware which I am downloading so I don't know if it will help yet but worth a try. http://www.userdrivers.com/blu-ray-media-players/samsung/Samsung-BD-F5100-Blu-ray-Disc-Player-Firmware-Upgrade-1006-3/download/ | |||

That didn't work...it told me that the player already had the latest firmware update. Sucks. I bought this Blu Ray player purposely because I thought I could make it region free. I grew up in the UK and have many DVDs from there that I can't watch. I'd have to buy them all over again here, if I could find them. | |||

I bought this model for my kid brother and have spent hours trying to unlock it to no avail. I have unlocked maybe 10 Blu-ray- and DVD-players in my lifetime, but this one is hard. I often lack a detailed report about firmware version and remote control. Model: Samsung BD-F5100_ZF Region: B/2 (Sweden) Software/firmware: BSP-F5100WWB-1010.0 Remote control: AK59-00149A See images: http://i.imgur.com/0nUrose.jpg http://i.imgur.com/7wGpWMk.jpg Anyone who knows a hack that does work? | |||

I can confirm this region hack works to make it region free for DVDs, I did it yesterday on a brand new Samsung Blu-Ray Disc BD-F5100. Model: BD-F5100 /ZX Region: A/4 (Mexico) Firmware: BSP-F100ZXB-1010.0 Remote: AK59-00149A Using your remote control do the following: 1. Power ON without disc. Press OPEN TRAY 2. Press the BLACK button BELOW the yellow "C" button. 3. Press 7-6-8-8-4 (or your region code). 3. The current region code will display at the top left of the screen. 4. Press 9 to change to free region. Power off with RC Power On with RC Repeat steps 1 to 3, your region code will now show a "0" on the top left corner. Congratulations you now have region free BD-F5100 for DVDs since the Blu-Ray region stays the same. Region codes: 1- 29334 2- 57538 3- 56732 4- 76884 5- 53814 6- 24462 Note: (On step 2 If you press the repeat A-B button bellow the green "B" button, this hack won't work) | |||

The first hack of the thread worked perfectly well for me, with one little tweak. My remote is model AK59-00149A and it has two 'REPEAT' buttons. One (A-B, right under the 'B' button) did nothing for me, whilst the other (unlabelled, right under the 'C' button) worked on the first try. | |||

I've just bought this machine. The current firmware version is BSP-F5100XUB-1010.1. I've tried this hack for hours, but no joy. Could this be due to the firmware and can I install an older version? Help! | |||

Samsung BD-J5100/za, region 1 player naturally, ak59-00149A remote. Older model, never had firmware updates. Tried every method repeatedly. Nothing worked. The region code never appears. Apparently this works for non US players, but does not work for US region 1 players? I read elsewhere to hold repeat 5 seconds, and various options for info or stop instead of repeat. Nothing worked. as of 06/2019. Some amazon Q&A comments seem to indicate some people are unlocking these, slapping all region stickers on them, and upcharging them as region free. Need to jump to admin menu somehow. Failed. | |||
