	The method used for the LG RC185 from the hack of July 9, 2006 works fine. One thing: when you get to the "lock" option on your remote, leave it there, don't go to the menu to the right which has three options--rating, password, area code. Leave it on "lock" and press 0 x 7. Works like a dream!

	The "000000" hack did not work on my Swedish market RC185 bought in December 2006. But the hack posted by thenetbuilder for the RC199H does work: "This is hack to enter the system configuration information. Once here you can change many aspects of the DVD including the region code. I have included a link with pictures of exactly how to do this <a href="http://thenetbuilder.com/2006/11/hack_your_lg_dvd_player.php">HERE</a> To start the hack: Click the home button on the remote, goto the Setup page, highlight the 16X9 aspect ratio and enter in this coded sequence: 1 3 9 7 1 3 9 To change the values of these options hit the enter button and scroll with arrow keys until you get to the option you want to change. For the region code hack replace the value of option 5 with the value of: ff Changing this value will set unit to region code 0 which should allow any region to be played on the player. Hit the return button to save and exit. Reboot the device - all is well now."

	tried the above hack by pressing zero 7 times with the remote control on my uk LG RC185. it worked fine for 16 days, i played and recorded onto all types of discs. all was good. then the dvd player failed to recognise any discs at all ? this included pre bought discs (region 1 & 2), dvd-r, dvd-rw, or cds. was this a fault with the laser ? was this a fault with the hack ? i have exchanged the LG RC185 for another one without any probs. i will not be entering the above hack until i can get confirmation from others that it works and continues to work.
