 Region code hack posted by Carlos Santos, November 13 2008: | |||
I've found this hack here from another Samsung player, it works for my R2 player, thx for the guy who put it here, i have just copied all his text: 1) Turn on the player with no disc in the tray 2) Press the Open/Close button to open the tray 3) Press the info button, the firmware version shows up (mine was 080729.21.B.1080PKXEG) 4) After the version info disappears, close the tray again by pressing the Open/Close button 5) At this point, it will show "no disc" at the top. Press the Info button again, and this will disappear. 6) Now type the code that applies for your region (R2 is 57538). A '2' will briefly show up at the top left corner 7) Now press 9, and 9 will show up in the top left corner 8) Power off the player, and turn it on again. You'll have a multi region player Region Code for the 1080PK hack: R1 - 29334 R2 - 57538 R3 - 56732 R4 - 76884 R5 - 53814 R6 - 24462 Not sure if all are correct, but it worked for R2. | |||

I bought a Samsung DVD player 1080PK in Bangalore recently (Jan 2009) and initially it was coded only for region 5 (India). I went through the following steps (which were told to me by a Samsung technician) to make it region free. This steps match closely to the one posed by another viewer so I have retained the same format. 1) Turn on the player with no disc in the tray 2) Press the Open/Close button to open the tray 3) Press the info button, the firmware version shows up 4) After the version info disappears, close the tray again by pressing the Open/Close button 5) At this point, it will show "no disc" at the top. Press the Info button again, and this will disappear. 6) Locate the Repeat A-B button on the remote, which in my case was ‘9’ 6) Now type the code that applies for your region (R5 (India) is 53814) followed by 9 (Repeat A-B button) and then press the Enter button. So enter 538149 and then Enter. A last few digits ‘4’ and '9' may briefly show up at the top left corner. 8) Power off the player, and turn it on again. You'll have a multi region player Region Code for the 1080PK hack: R1 - 29334 R2 - 57538 R3 - 56732 R4 - 76884 R5 - 53814 R6 - 24462 This worked for me after a couple of tries. | |||
