 Region code hack posted by susan123, April 02 2009:1) Turn on the player with no disc in the tray 2) Press the Open/Close button to open the tray 3) Press the info button, the firmware version shows up ( 4) After the version info disappears, close the tray again by pressing the Open/Close button 5) At this point, it will show "no disc" at the top. Press the Info button again, and this will disappear. 6) Now type the code that applies for your region (R2 is 57538). A '2' will briefly show up at the top left corner 7) Now press 9, and 9 will show up in the top left corner 8) Power off the player, and turn it on again. You'll have a multi region player I've found the following codes at the 1080P7 hack: R1 - 29334 R2 - 57538 R3 - 56732 R4 - 76884 R5 - 53814 R6 - 24462 | ||||

| Region code hack posted by gifford72, June 17 2009: This is cool for me.. I have never been able to help before. I tried the above P7 hack and was concerned when the info button was not behaving in the same as my P7. Thats when i realised that the remote was more like the Blu-ray one I had used to unlock my BD1500 a couple of weeks ago. Searched the list, tried the hack and sucess!!! Use the BD1500 hack to unlock the P9. Rather than search I have pasted it below. Rather than the info key it uses the repeat button rather than info. REMEMBER ITS ABOUT A CONSTANT TIMING WITH YOUR BUTTON PRESSES NOT ABOUT HOW FAST YOU CAN DO IT. 1) Turn on the player with no disc in the tray Wait till the unit is at the Samsung logo screen. 2) Open then close the tray, wait to see the No-Disc Message in the top Left Corner 3) Now press the REPEAT button on the remote, followed by a five digit code. In this case Repeat 76884 4) When it works a 4 will appear in the top left corner 5) Press 9 to make it regionless. 6) Press Eject to OPEN to open the disc tray. 7) Press Eject to CLOSE to close the disc tray. 8) Power the unit off 9) Now power the unit on again, it should now read all regions of DVD Disc. From other threads I got the follow list of region codes. R1 - 29334 R2 - 57538 R3 - 56732 R4 - 76884 R5 - 53814 R6 - 24462 Enjoy Guys and I am stoked I worked it out for once! | ||||
| Region code hack posted by Lprieto33, June 18 2009: Anybody have any luck unlocking the Samsung 1080P9 from Region 1? How about an earlier model, 1080P8 or P7? Thanks.... | ||||
| Region code posted by aussiegriff, June 25 2009: Want to say thanks to gifford72 for his hack and his assistance, but I think the Region 1 players are (now?) unhackable. Can anyone confirm that the European or Aussie ones that have been hacked have a voltage input range of 90-250 VAC? My theory is that since my Region 1 player had a fixed voltage input of 110 VAC, Samsung might be making a US/Can version (fixed at Reg 1) and a rest-of-world version (which would need to support a region change, which is why it's hackable) | ||||
| Region code hack posted by region2hack, July 17 2009: gifford72's method worked perfectly on a Region 2 Samsung DVD-1080P9XEG firmware: 090416.04.B.1080P9XEG | ||||

| Region code hack posted by mrbigishome, July 30 2009: Giffords hack worked well. I bought my player in Sainsbury Supermarket in the UK (region 2). I followed the instructions using the number 2 code. It took a few attempts, pacing the pressing of the numbers is the key and after about 5 attempts it worked perfectly. Many thanks and be patient. | ||||
| Region code hack posted by wolfsign, November 04 2009: I have a region 1 player and I too have tried all the hacks mentioned but none work. I may have found something though; see below; 1. Power on player with no disc in tray 2. Open tray using Open/Close button 3. Press 9 key and you have a number grid with 3, 7, 8, 9, 19 highlighted. I can not find a way to unhighlight any numbers so to try and change a region but pressing the "RETURN" or "CANCEL" button turns this off. This could be some start for someone. I will keep fiddling though. | ||||
| Region code hack posted by HAR, November 13 2009: Giffords hack worked perfectly on my second try on the 1080P9 I just bought in the Netherlands (use the repeat button and enter 57538). | ||||
