The same procedure used for Samsung R155 (found on this forum) works for Samsung DVD-R170 region 4. | |||

Same as DVD-R155. I pasted fabiocese's post since it has the entire procedure and rvilanova's numeric codes for each region (example is region 4) =========================================================== Region code hack posted by fabiocese, March 13 2008: I live in Brazil, RC 4. I bought the DVD-R155 this week(March 10th, 2008) and I acted exactly like mentioned bay capps55. It worked perfectly. After the procedure I've played some RC4 movies and other RC1 ones with no troubles. I'd like to describe again with some notes that may casually be useful: a)Do not insert any disk in the equipment during this procedure. b)The DVD-R155 must be connected to your TV set. c)Switch your TV to the entry where the DVD-R155 is connected(like when you watch a DVD). This is necessary because you'll see the needed information in the TV screen, not in the DVD-R155 display. After that... 1. Turn Player On Press the Menu button on your remote control 2. Press 7, 6, 8, 8, 4 buttons on your remote control(NOTICE: If your RC is different from 4, the number sequence is different: see the correct sequence below). 3. The currently selected region will be indicated on the TV - in the upper right corner. 4. Press quickly the 9 button before your region code disappears, in order to switch the DVD-R155 to region-free. Remember: you must be quick. (in the step 4 you could press button 1 for region 1, 2 for region 2 and so on, but I believe you want to have your equipment region-free, don't you?) Here we have the number sequence for other regions: RC 1: 2, 9, 3, 3, 4 RC 2: 5, 7, 5, 3, 8 RC 3: 5, 6, 7, 3, 2 RC 4: 7, 6, 8, 8, 4 RC 5: 5, 3, 8, 1, 4 RC 6: 2, 4, 4, 6, 2 Like capps55 I also must say thanks to rvilanova for posting the codes for the different regions, for without them we would still be pressing the wrong numbers, thanks again rvilanova. I hope this helps other people. And I say thanks to you, capps55, because you've been explicit enough to clear the procedure. Many thanks from Brazil. | |||

Suggested region code hack does "NOT" work. Nothing is displayed on the screen as the article suggests. | |||

Press the 8 button on your remote control 7. The currently selected region will be indicated on the onscreen display 8. Press the 1 button on your remote control for region 1, the 2 button for region 2, and so on, or the 9 button for multi-region playback 9. Press the Menu button on your remote control 10. Press the Menu button on your remote control I put my region 4 player on the region "9". | |||

Hi, I try with my samsung DVD-R170 and I'm unable to hack. It's probably because I don't have the right code. I'm in zone 1. What is the code that I need to insert to hak it? Thank you | |||
