RE: Help re Philips 701 hack

Thanks for the advice...I did what I was advised re unplugging the machine as Steve suggested. As you can see from my reply to him, it didn`t work, so I`ve asked him for more help. Didn`t realise you had already posted an alternative answer. Have now gone to your website. Please forgive my complete ignorance...I didn`t understand it!! What is "firmware?".As you may have gathered, no one told me to make a note of this(or what this is!) before I buggered up my machine & it didn`t occur to me to do so.
Would really appreciate your advice on what to do next.

RE: Help re Philips 701 hack

Steve

Thank you for the tip....unfortunately, the machine is now in Virgin mode still displaying "Loewe". The settings do not include the UK in its list of countries, so I can`t reset it at all.
I guess I really need help now with the following:
undoing all of this to return it to its factory setting
making the machine multi region.

What service do you provide & how much? Do I need to send you the machine(sorry if this is a stupid question!)
Thanks

Help re Philips 701 hack

Help!! I`m a so-called "newbie" with a problem. A friend gave me a hack for the above DVD player & I`ve come unstuck. I followed the instructions using my DVD remote control & the screen was meant to turn red for region 1. It didn`t instead, the screen is grey & says "DVD Loewe". I was given instructions on how to change back but with no success. Has my machine locked? The hack was as follows:
Press play, 2,7,4. Line of dots appear.Enter: 005000 128156 & play.
To change back: follow above except enter 002000 128156 instead.
After doing a spot of Sherlock Holmes detective work, looks like the hack I was given is for the Philips 730/930 models. Am I up the preverbial creek?
Thanks
