It is most likely to work on most LG players not listed above, although more recent players may have a different chipset.

Press Pause on the Remote
Enter 3, 1, 4, 1, 5, 9 on the Remote (the word COdE or FF appears on the display)
Enter 0 on the Remote (0 = All Regions, 1 = Region 1, 2 = Region 2, etc.)
Press Pause on the Remote
Power the player off, wait 30 seconds and then power back on
If the above code fails to work then once the player has displayed the "No disc" message press Stop before entering the above code.

Note: Freezes with RCE encoded discs. No known problems with models using new firmware made available in January 2000. Earlier firmware versions will not play The Matrix and require an upgrade, this does not remove the hack
