Here’s a simple guide to unlock your Region 2 DVD player to Region 9 making it multi-region and able to play all DVD’s from across the world.

When entering the actual code, the secret is to have consistent timing during key presses and not pressing the buttons as quickly as possible.

1. Press the POWER button on the DVD remote to turn the DVD player On.  Make sure there is no disc in the tray.
2. Wait until the unit is fully started and your TV is showing the Samsung logo screen.
3. Press EJECT on the DVD remote to open the DVD tray.
4. Close the DVD tray, by pressing the EJECT button again, and wait for the “No Disc” message to appear in the top left corner of your TV.
5. Press the REPEAT button on the DVD remote, followed by the five digit Region 2 code.
   In this case press REPEAT followed by 57538 (be constant with your key press timings…do not rush or take too long).
6. If you’re successful you’ll see a number 2 appear in the top left corner of your TV.  If not, power down the DVD player and repeat steps from 1.
7. Press 9.  This will set the DVD player to Region 9 making it region free.
8. Press EJECT on the DVD remote to open the DVD tray.
9. Press EJECT on the DVD remote to close the DVD tray.
10. Press POWER on the DVD remote to power down the player.
11. Now power the unit on again and it should be able to read all DVDs from all regions.  Insert a non-Region 2 disc to test and confirm.
