Hi. All these LG models have different names in different countries. Can anyone tell if my swedish v8706 combo is amongst the verified models to survive AlexKKK´s cure? Some of you have described problems... (yes, I'm too chicken to just try:-)

Hi Guys, I have been trying to open the Zones on an LG DV8821P for days. LG gave me the 314159 code but it didn't work. Eventually joy by opening tray, pressing "000" for the menu then "0" for all zones, pause and power off. I hope this helps someone else

Hi There
i have the same problem as AVA..this was part of the reply "However, you need to make sure that your TV display can support NTSC. If not, you can check whether you can set the video output of the DVD to PAL, if so done, the US NTSC dvds will be converted by your dvd player to Pal signal and displayed on your Pal TV."
My old Dvd player had a switch on it to convert it to PAL..but my new LG v8824w doesn't seem to have one and it won't play certian copied dvd's on my teac ct-f6860s..can anyone help me with this..please..the tv manual says it does have ntsc playback..and i have my dvd player multiregion with the codes from this site, nut still won't play certian copied DVD's..sorry haven't got any US dvd to try it on and see if it plays them..or not...thanks

I was unaware of the whole "region" business when I bought my LG V8824W recently. No surprise I was shocked and disappointed not to be able to play certain DVDs. But thanks the "magic" code I will be able to. So to whomever is responsible, again-THANKS!!!

Hi,

Please help. Have tried Alex KKK's 314159 tip and have found my country code in the setup menu has changed from UK to US even though i entered 0 for region free. My model is LG 5063. I have tried a region 2 disc and it still works. does this mean it has worked>

Does the unlocking CODE do any damage or create any OTHER restrictions once you punch it in? Can reverse this unlocking also?

Thank you.

I have tried the code 314159 for my player (LG DV8700C) but it didn't work, so I tried something else and now my player is region free, i will tell you how i did it.
- turned on the player, no disk inside.
- opened the disk tray
- pushed 3 times the 0 button on the remote
- pushed the pause button on de player
- pushed the 0 button on the remote
- closed the dvd tray
- turned the player off.
now my player is region free.

I'm from Holland but i'm sure it will help others in other countries as well. Just try it.

I have tried to change my LG V774W dvd/vcr region from 4 to 0. When i use the method that requires "no disc" then enter "pause" then enter "314159" then "0" for all regions then "pause" etc... it doesn's seem to be doing anything. The "no disc" is displayed throughout the whole process. Can someone help?
