I have purchased the BD-F5100 after reading the hack
mentioned, but haven't been able to successfully hack my
machine. Would anyone be able to confirm that the information
is correct and what remote they were using. I have the one
that is shipped AK59-00149A.

Hi.
I know this is not what this part is for but I am really struggling. I purchased
the Samsung BD-F5100 Bluray player and I am unable to get the hack to
make it DVD multi-regional, I am in the UK (region 2) and all the hacks I
have tried haven't worked. Has anyone got it to work on a UK model ?
Please help.

For Samsung BD F5500: Follow rtalaman protocol, EXCEPT use the "REPEAT" button to the right of the "A/B REPEAT" button instead of the "A/B" button. This worked for me first try on a Mexican bought BD F5500, after no results with any of the protocols posted previously.



PostRegion code hack posted by keychain, November 22 2013:


This is for the Samsung BD-F5500 3D Blu Ray.

The hack posted by BillKG worked for me, exactly as posted by him. I live in South Asia, region code 53814.

Specifically, follow rtalaman's protocol, except, don't press the A-B button, but press the blank button to the right of the A-B button.

This worked on the second try for me. Make sure to sit close to the DVD player. If you're sitting at a normal distance, the player may miss sensing a push of the button on the remote, in which case it may not work.

Status: failure to set region-free
Unit: Samsung BD-F5100/AZ
Remote AK59-00149A
Firmware 1004.3

Tried all methods:
Reset to factory defaults
ON/Open/A-B/29334
ON/Open/REPEAT/29334
ON/STOP/29334/STOP
REPEAT/29334 /REPEAT/29334/REPEAT/29334/REPEAT/29334

None resulted in the region code flashing on screen.

I am from India and tried this on my samsung BD 5100.

Worked perfect just in 2 tries. As someone says sit close to the DVD player
so that it gets all the digits. And yes instead of repeat use the black button
in the very last row of buttons on the remote. This black button is between
A-B and Screen buttons. Worked like a charm. Remember to do a power
recycle after pressing the last 9 and trying out outher region disc.

Greetings,

I recently purchased the Samsung BD-F5100 Bluray player and I tried the hack mentioned here several times, but haven't been able to successfully hack my machine. I am in Portugal (Region 2) and my model comes with the AK59-00149A remote control. Can anyone help me?

Many thanks.

Hello everyone!

I tried all the hacks posted here in my Samsung BD-F5100 Bluray player and none of them works. I live in Portugal (region 2) and my model comes with the AK59-00149A remote control; firmware is BSP-F5100WWB-1009.3. Any tips?



PostRegion code posted by naggerz, February 05 2014:


Samsung BF5100 and none of these hacks work.
My remote: AK59-00149A
Version: BSP-F5100XUB-1006.3

Any ideas and help would be welcome.

If it helps, I found an old firmware which I am downloading so I don't know if it will help yet but worth a try.

PostRegion code posted by scramble, February 21 2014:


That didn't work...it told me that the player already had the latest firmware update.
Sucks.
I bought this Blu Ray player purposely because I thought I could make it region free. I grew up in the UK and have many DVDs from there that I can't watch. I'd have to buy them all over again here, if I could find them.

I bought this model for my kid brother and have spent hours
trying to unlock it to no avail. I have unlocked maybe 10
Blu-ray- and DVD-players in my lifetime, but this one is
hard. I often lack a detailed report about firmware version
and remote control.

Model: Samsung BD-F5100_ZF
Region: B/2 (Sweden)
Software/firmware: BSP-F5100WWB-1010.0
Remote control: AK59-00149A

Anyone who knows a hack that does work?

I can confirm this region hack works to make it region
free for DVDs, I did it yesterday
on a brand new Samsung Blu-Ray Disc BD-F5100.


Model: BD-F5100 /ZX
Region: A/4 (Mexico)
Firmware: BSP-F100ZXB-1010.0
Remote: AK59-00149A

Using your remote control do the following:

1. Power ON without disc. Press OPEN TRAY
2. Press the BLACK button BELOW the yellow "C" button.

3. Press 7-6-8-8-4 (or your region code).
3. The current region code will display at the top left
of the screen.
4. Press 9 to change to free region.

Power off with RC
Power On with RC

Repeat steps 1 to 3, your region code will now show a "0"
on the top left corner.

Congratulations you now have region free BD-F5100 for
DVDs since the Blu-Ray region stays the same.

Region codes:

1- 29334
2- 57538
3- 56732
4- 76884
5- 53814
6- 24462

Note:
(On step 2 If you press the repeat A-B button bellow the
green "B" button, this hack won't work)

The first hack of the thread worked perfectly well for me, with one little tweak. My remote is
model AK59-00149A and it has two 'REPEAT' buttons. One (A-B, right under the 'B' button) did
nothing for me, whilst the other (unlabelled, right under the 'C' button) worked on the first
try.

I've just bought this machine. The current firmware version is BSP-F5100XUB-1010.1. I've tried
this hack for hours, but no joy. Could this be due to the firmware and can I install an older
version? Help!

Samsung BD-J5100/za, region 1 player naturally, ak59-00149A remote. Older model, never had firmware updates. Tried every method repeatedly. Nothing worked. The region code never appears. Apparently this works for non US players, but does not work for US region 1 players? I read elsewhere to hold repeat 5 seconds, and various options for info or stop instead of repeat. Nothing worked. as of 06/2019. Some amazon Q&A comments seem to indicate some people are unlocking these, slapping all region stickers on them, and upcharging them as region free. Need to jump to admin menu somehow. Failed.
