It seems the new hack for the Coby DVD-298, is actually a old hack. If any of the other codes didn't work for you try this one. Power on unit, open the tray and type 5168 on the remote. A new box should appear. Password is where the cursor should appear, press up to reach region, then press right to access regions, press up or down to the region you want. Select your region then press enter. Press setup to exit. I bought mine 5/2011 none of the previous codes worked for me but this one did. I got this code from the Curtis DVD1093 posted May 19th 2009. Thank you markosjal for the post! |
