I have a R4 DVD and B for Blu-Ray. As far as I know, this machine is the Australian equivalent of around BD670.

An old hack brings up the old hexadecimal region fix, which is very frustrating. You can get the 'options' screen up when you key in (WARNING!) #1472 after inserting a region rejected disc. I toyed around with the hex values and none of them had any perceivable effect, that is until I adjusted the first two, and in so doing it triggers some sort of internal default, and all the hex on the page is consequently changed and the machine becomes locked on Region 1 for DVD and Region A for Blu Ray--that's even worse! Also other values there get overwritten and unless you noted them down before hand (which I thankfully did) and are willing to spend a significant amount of time navigating about the screen reinserting them, the entire layout will be screwed up on your machine.

The hex starts with "41 55 00 A2" on my machine. 41 and 55 are letters "AU". 41 = A, 42 = B ... 55 = U. If the number you key in exceeds this alphabetical threshold, I think that's what triggers this default. Changing the country there has NO effect on the region codes. For some strange reason, only a select few values are listed in white and easily navigatable, although you can use little tricks to get to every value except for those on the third line.

I can confirm on the 3rd uneditable line, my machine was originally "02 00 00 00 04 00 00 00". Ever since the default trigger, it is now displaying "01 00 00 00 01 00 00 00", which indicates the third line controls the region codes, but frustratingly there is no way to change them!

Ok you are spot on that it is the third line that contains the region code.

All you have to do is follow the key or instructions at the bottom of the screen to move the cursor over the digits that are grey.

You then need to position the cursor over the 5th pair of digits on the 3rd line. That is the region code and change to 00 (double zero) for Region free. Then confirm or press pause to save. It is then done.

It worked for me and I believe it works on all LG players has the same format.
