| Region code hack posted by Capn Trips, October 06 2008: The hack listed above apparently (as read in other forums) works very well on European Sony BDP-S350 Blu-ray players. I have tried it on a US BDP-S350 and although the player responds correctly (the 24p light flashes), it does NOT make the player region-free for DVD. Does anybody have the version of this hack that will make a US BDP-S350 region-free? | ||||
| Region code posted by shuga678, March 04 2009: To enter the service menu: With the power off, press and hold Open+Play+Stop on the front panel of the player. The unit will turn on and show the service menu. To leave the menu you have to hold the Power button the front panel until the unit turns off. | ||||
| Region code hack posted by humbi, March 30 2009: I was able to enter the service MENU but where do I go from here?. Can you please guide me where to change the region?. There are several submenu's and I am afraid of ruining the unit by entering the wrong info. Thanks | ||||
| Region code hack posted by rcrocha, April 24 2009: The hack totally worked on my player! I've tested several area 1, NTSC disks and they all worked. I'm from Brazil, and I have the official model distributed by Sony in the country. It's originally coded as NTSC, DVD area 4 and Blu-Ray region A. I used an ONE FOR ALL remote, model URC-3145 bought in Brazil by the official distributors, Opeco. Just Google them. European DVD's area 4, PAL-N, do not work. I can hear the sound but no image appears via HDMI. All other analogue outputs send a distorted image. Certainly a hardware limitation. | ||||
| Region code hack posted by vcarmi, June 19 2009: I don't have a oneforall remote. Is there another remote that can be used the same way ? | ||||
| Region code hack posted by Suicyco, June 30 2009: There are pre-hacked remotes for the BDP-S350 which send the special codes with just one button. They cost £9.99 You can find them on genuinecopies.tv | ||||
| Region code hack posted by Suicyco, July 05 2009: Successfully hacked my BDP-S350E with a OneForAll URC-7740 (using the VCR-button instead of DVD). It still worked, although I updated the firmware to Ver. 019 prior to the hack. | ||||
| Region code hack posted by abubasim, August 13 2009: Used this hack with a RadioShack 15-2142 (4-in-1 Family Favorites Remote) on a european BDP-S350 successfully. Plays region 1, 2 and 3 DVDs without problems and region B Blue-ray discs. As the previous poster I also updated the firmware before trying the hack. | ||||
| Region code hack posted by Aino, August 20 2009: Did the hack with a radioshack 4 in 1 2142 with a mexican version of s350 (region 4, region A) and worked, tried r1, r2(japan), and even r2 european pal worked well over hdmi. | ||||
| Region code hack posted by abubasim, October 24 2009: This hack remains after updating to the latest 020 firmware. | ||||
| Region code posted by bigmutt, November 18 2009: Like Capn Trips posted, this does not work with non-European units. Does anyone have a Region Code hack for the U.S. model of Sony BDP-350 ???? I live in Mexico City and most of the rentals here do not work on my player. Thanks. Rick | ||||
