Page 1 of Durabrand DVD-1005 Remote hack *Working*

Ok, I found the remote hack (no firmware update required, sorry for the red herring!)

Switch on
Open Lid
On the remote press the following in order - Stop, 9, 7, 3, 5
Hidden DVD Region menu appears. Select your required region (0-6)
Happy days - £17.97 multi-region DVD player.
Enjoy! Paul-ok.

I bought one this morning from ASDA for £19.98, the Firmware ver is 6.17 but the hack doesn`t work :(

Anymore tips?

I read somewhere else that the Durabarnd 1000 hack works on this Model ( Durabrand 1005)..see this thread

www.dvd.reviewer.co.uk/forums/thread.asp?Forum=176&Thread=510729

It Did not work on Firmware Revision V1.35UK which is the revision that Paul-ok has in his player ...see this thread

But Maybe it will work with your Player ...it is worth a try

Let the forum know if it works ...or not

Happy Hacking

No luck with the 1000 hack either, I`ve got both models at the moment (The 1000 belongs to my mum which hacked ok) and they only had the 1005 in stock at ASDA.

:(

Hi, Squidleigh, I bought a 1005 last Friday and following these forums found it to be firmware ver. 6.17 and have successfully used the code 2379. My grateful thanks to all users. Mike.
