Page 1 of DVD PLAYER - LG 4210

Can anybody help me ? I need to re-configure my DVD player to be multi-region and would be most grateful for any tips. Thanks Mell

Have you checked out the hack forum here?

LG is on the list (think me Dad has an LG 4210 and it works using the hack here).

Hi ya Grunt - I though I had checked - thanks for the info I`ll try and look again I must have missed it.

Hi again - I`ve just gone and re-checked and can`t find it. Could you please ask you Dad what the hack is - I`d be most grateful. Mel

Multi-region Remote Hack
• Reports confirm that this hack works with the following LG players; DVD-2330P, DVD-3000E, DVD-3350/1/E/C (and clones), DA-3520, DVD-4210, DVD-4710, DVD-4730, DVD-4750, DVD-4830, DVD-4950.
• It has been reported that this hack will work with the more recent version of the LG DVD-3200E but not on the earlier version running firmware 1.0.
• You can perform this hack as many times as you want and the currently selected Region will stick until you change it again. Only a very long power cut may cause the player to revert to the factory default setting of Region 2 (in which case just perform the hack again).
• An odd quirk of this hack is that even when you specifically set the player to Region 1 only, it will still play discs from Region 2! This is actually quite useful if your collection consists of some RCE protected Region 1 titles and also Region 2 discs which do not (normally) have RCE.
• If you are having trouble getting the hack to work, try pressing
Power on the player with no disk in the drive
Press "PAUSE" on the remote
Enter "3 1 4 1 5 9" on the remote (the word COdE 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 and then back on
• If you are having trouble getting the hack to work, try pressing "STOP" on the remote before you press "PAUSE" for the first time.

Hi Wonder - Many thanks for the info - I`ll try it this evening when I get home from work. Mell (PS I`ll let you know how I get on)

Hi Wonder - Unfortunately you hack didn`t work at all - any other ideas ? I`M DESPERATE TO GET THIS TO WORK - Mell

repeat the hack and watch the front of your dvd player for the word code to appear, this hack has to be done very quickly

hope this helps
wonder

Hi again - I thought I had done it very quickly last night but I will try again and see how it goes. Thanks Mell

does the hack work on a lg4710 and any chance it will break it
