You need the ONE4ALL DIGITAL remote (£24 Argos, take it back & get a refund within 13 days) and do this:

Set the one4all remote to use a Philips DVD (you will understand if you have the one4all manual) with the setup code 0539.

Then when you`ve done that, make sure there`s no disc in, and press the MAGIC button ONCE then type 085 on the one4all. The DVD unit will show this :




With the Philips remote that came with the player, type 222 222 005 255.
The last digit will not appear though. It should then, straight away say NO DISC. Put the DVD player on standby (press the button on the unit itself) and leave it for 10 - 15 seconds. Turn it back on and it should be multi regional!
Hope this helps

U need 2 buy a One 4 All remote otherwise the 222 etc hack can`t be done. Firmware shouldn`t matter. Mine worked fine and I took the One 4 All back the next day & got my cash back!

Did anyone ever find the answer to this? Im trying with the one4all remote and the ------- isnt showing up. Am i supposed to hold down the play/magic button?
