Samsung DVD-511 Working Region-free Hack

Region Change that Works!

Always perform a cold start before applying the hack below:

Power on your player
Press and hold both the PLAY and STOP buttons on the player
After a short while you should be presented with a set of
language options. Release the PLAY and STOP buttons now on the
player.

To convert this player to Multi-Region playback

Press the REPEAT button on the remote control
Using your remote control enter the code 38767
The code 02 should be displayed on the screen indicating this is
a region 2 unit.
Press the 9 button on your remote control for REGION FREE or 1
region 1 etc.
Press the OPEN button on the player
Press the STANDBY button on your remote control

All done!!!

LG 5083 and all 5000 series players WORKING!! Multiregion HACK

YEEEEEE-HAAAAAAA IT WORKS!!!!!!

Thanks very much...........

Here`s how i did it.........

Step 1....Download the file lg5000.zip by copying this line into your web address box, or basically where you type `www.yahoo.co.uk` for example.

http://downloads.come2store.com/AllanC/LG5000.zip

Wait for the download box to appear then click on save.

Step 2....You will need winzip or easyzip as the file you have downloaded is in a compressed state or `Zipped up`. Open the file lg5000.zip then extract or uncompress the file kpjc19_1.dvd to you hard drive in say your `Mydocuments` folder. (Here is the confusing bit) it will create a directory in your Mydocuments folder called RMTM0000, this you accept and go with the flow ( remember ok ).

Step 3....You need a CD writer to Burn or write (another familiar term is formatting the disc...ok) a new disk which will copy the files you`ve just extracted or uncompressed ie RMTM0000.

Step 4....You need the CD burning software like EASYCD Creator or CDCLONE is popular. I used Stomp RecordMAXnow version 3. These can be downloaded but can take a while to find. Link to crack site EDITED BY MODERATOR (tut tut!)
Step 5....Buy that CDR disc to burn too. Now ive read the text above about it not being a 700mb capacity CDR but mine worked. For info. i used Memorex CD-R 700MB 24x from Staples(24x means the speed to which data can be transferred or read). This speed I think is the key to success not the capacity or size of the CDR.

Step 6....Using the CD burning software you need to create a DATA CD not audio etc, and ADD the directory RMTM0000 from your Mydocuments Folder in Step 2. Thats all you need! as the real file is automatically copied over as well.

Once this is complete you will be impressed.....Switch on your player and insert the disc...when prompted select 0 for multi region and then ENTER, POWER OFF and your ready to go!........Thanks again to AllanC for all your efforts...........
