    What do you mean unlock, are you reffering to region unlock or some other weird thing.

    Took me a while to try out all the others, But this one worked for me. Funnily enough its the same as the samsung p191 hack.

    Turn on the unit with no disc in the unit. The No Disc message should be visible
    Press the following keys in this sequence
    Repeat (not the A-B Repeat, just the plain Repeat)
    Fast rewind button (just below the Disc Menu button)
    Play button
    Down button
    Down button
    Right Button

    The number 0 should now appear towards the left of the screen.

    Open then close the disc draw

    Turn off the unit and then on again. You should now be able to play DVDs from any region

    • Turn on dvd player, no dvd in tray
    • Press 'menu' button
    • In Main Menu press....
    29334 if you have a R1 player
    57538 if you have a R2 player
    56732 if you have a R3 player
    76884 if you have a R4 player
    53814 if you have a R5 player
    24462 if you have a R6 player
    • Region code is visible close to the right corner of your tv screen
    • Whilst the current region number is being displayed, press 9 for code free
    • Press the "Open/close" button on the remote. The tray will open. Leave it open for a about 6 seconds.
    • Press the "On/off" button on the remote.
    You may have to do this a couple of times before works.

    It's amazing what you can find on Google.

    Hey, I have an issue with this hack: the remote control you discrive does not relate to one provided by Sansung (i.e. below the Disc menu button there is a key to change the audio/subtitle and not the fast rewind button)

    Any comment?

  • Guys,

    none of those hacks worked on my Samsung HT-C550 (DVD home theater), Does anyone have a clue how to go about making it region-free?

    Many thanks in advance!

    I could be wrong here, but id hazard a guess that none of the regular posers here would havea clue how to make it region free

    My personal thoughts are ive never seen a hack for anything other than a standard dvd/bluray drive. (Ie, ive never seen a hacked home cinema system). All WE do is google. If you cant find one via google, then neither can we. And im pretty sure it doesnt exist (Id lay a tenner on it anyways)
