 Region code hack posted by Gabriel Klyber, March 15 2003: | |||
From mx3800d hacks, these work on mx3700d: Check that "Play 159 Play" resets the counter to 25 in the top left corner of your screen then the screen goes dark blue for a second and back to normal. For region 1 press "Play 159 111 002 08 Play" For region 2 press "Play 159 221 002 08 Play" Each time a number appears in top left corner of screen which shows how many times it has been changed. After each change the screen goes dark blue for a second then back to normal. It appears this hack will work on the following models by changing the 002 for 001=LX3000/LX3500 002=MX3600/MX3800 003=LX7000 Help us keep the list clean, Report this hack (requests/questions/spam/wrong/crap). Region code hack posted by John Doe at December 04 2002: With the help of the hack posted bij John Hope I've figured out the following fact: Everything is the same as written in the hack that John posted (press play 159 play). For region 3 press "play 159 331 002 08 play" This I have tested and it works well. The following regions I didn't try yet, but I think they work too. For region 4 press "play 159 441 002 08 play" For region 5 press "play 159 551 002 08 play" For region 6 press "play 159 661 002 08 play" Enjoy it! | |||

I've made my LX3750W successfully region-free, and since the set has the same DVD-player as the MX3700D, this will also work for the MX3700D: 1. Start up the player (in disc mode) with no disc in the tray. 2. Press Play on the player. 3. Press 159 023 793 90 on the remote. 4. Press Play on the remote. 5. You'll see a message flashing on your screen, saying something like "DVD player has been set to region 0" 6. When the image on the TV returns, power down the player. 7. Wait 10 seconds. 8. Start up the player again I've tested it with region 1,2 and 4 discs, also with RCE checking discs, all played successfull. I've had to try it a few times, press the numbers not too quickly. | |||

For the MX 3700D This works with NTSC TV Play 159 Play to reset counter to 25 To change to region 1 Play 159 111 002 08 Play To change to region 2 Play 159 211 002 08 Play For PAL TV To change to region 2 Play 159 221 002 08 Play There are no indications on TV until second Play is entered and then screen goes blank for a few seconds. The numbers have to be entered at a slow steady pace with 2 seconds between groups. No need to power off when changing between regions. Have not been able to figure out if it is possible to go to an all region 0. | |||

For MX 3700D After several attempts the Play 159 023 793 90 Play did work. Seems like it takes just the right amount of time between pressing numbers to make this work. Did not have to power down. Played both region 1 and region 2 dvd on NTSC TV. | |||
