Multi-region Remote Hack
Reports confirm that this hack works with the following LG players; DVD-2330P, DVD-3000E, DVD-3350/1/E/C (and clones), DA-3520, DVD-4210, DVD-4710, DVD-4730, DVD-4750, DVD-4830, DVD-4950.
It has been reported that this hack will work with the more recent version of the LG DVD-3200E but not on the earlier version running firmware 1.0.
You can perform this hack as many times as you want and the currently selected Region will stick until you change it again. Only a very long power cut may cause the player to revert to the factory default setting of Region 2 (in which case just perform the hack again).
An odd quirk of this hack is that even when you specifically set the player to Region 1 only, it will still play discs from Region 2! This is actually quite useful if your collection consists of some RCE protected Region 1 titles and also Region 2 discs which do not (normally) have RCE.
If you are having trouble getting the hack to work, try pressing
Power on the player with no disk in the drive
Press "PAUSE" on the remote
Enter "3 1 4 1 5 9" on the remote (the word COdE appears on the display)

Enter "0" on the remote (0 = All Regions, 1 = Region 1, 2 = Region 2, etc.)
Press "PAUSE" on the remote
Power the player off and then back on
If you are having trouble getting the hack to work, try pressing "STOP" on the remote before you press "PAUSE" for the first time.

If when you say some of your DVD`s are in black and white you mean the region 1 ones, you will have to put the little switch on the back of your player from auto to PAL disconnect from the mains for 10 seconds and then turn it back on. They should now play in colour ok.
Steve..

do you know if you can get it to play vcds?

WARNING: Do not attempt this hack unless it has been confirmed to work with your player. Reports show that it completely screws-up players which do not have latent VCD capability. If your player is not specifically listed below, then assume that the hack does not work on that model. Choose to ignore this warning at your own peril.
Reports confirm that this hack works with the following LG players; DA-3520, DVD-3000E, DVD-3350/1/E/C, DVD-4210, DVD-4730, DVD-4750, DVD-4830, DVD-4950.
If the transport in your player cannot read CD-R/CD-RW then only original pressed "silver" VCDs can be played.
I strongly advise that you do not experiment with any other values or settings other than the ones specified. Doing so may result in undesired effects (e.g. foreign language menus) or may even disable your player completely.
No changes are saved until you press the "ENTER" button. So if you think you have made a mistake before reaching that point, simply press "RETURN" and the procedure will be cancelled.
I cannot of course accept any responsibility for anything that happens to your player whilst you are poking around with these settings.
Follow these instructions very carefully.

Power on the player with no disk in the drive

Press "PAUSE" on the remote

Enter "1472" on the remote (the characters 01 47 should appear on the display)
[If your player is a non UK model, this number will probably be different - don`t worry]

Press the UP arrow three times (the characters 04 Fd should appear on the display)
[This number may be different depending on the configuration of your specific model - don`t worry]

Press "PROGRAM", "6", "PROGRAM", "5" (the characters 04 FE should now be displayed)

Press "ENTER" (the display should flash briefly)

Press "RETURN"

Power the player off and then back on

Play a VCD!

If you are having trouble getting the hack to work, try pressing "STOP" on the remote before you press "PAUSE" for the first time.
The above hack will also enable the 5.1 Speaker Setup menu which is of no use on players which do not have an in-built Dolby Digital decoder (e.g. DVD-3000E and DVD-4730). Therefore on these players perform the above procedure but exchange steps 4 and 5 for:
Press the UP arrow three times (the characters 04 9C should appear on the display)
[This number may be different depending on the configuration of your specific model - don`t worry]

Press "PROGRAM", "4", "PROGRAM", "5" (the characters 04 dE should now be displayed)

Will it now play SVCDs, XVCDs, XSVCDs, or mini-DVDs?

I have that same model but I bought this one on Mexico, I was able to use the multi region hack and had an scarry moment withe the VCD one, so do that with caution.

Finally fixed that problem (dont ask me how) cause the reset button doesnt help there.

I have 1 question I tryed a movie with DTS sound and I that doesnt work, is there a hack for DTS cause the DTS displaysa does turn on when I try it but doesnt work
