This hack also works for my <b>LG DK173</b> player. By the way, you don't have to power off the player after entering the hack, the DVD player's EPROM will save the new region and will no longer try to detect the disc's region code. | |||

To make my DK172 region free I needed to make VCD like for LG 5353 (please see instructions from there). Device bought at December 2006 from Finland. | |||
