Page 1 of Goodmans DVD3500PK - Hack required

I`ve noticed that if you open the drawer you can start input a pin code from the remote, the code appears to be 4 digits, maybe this is the way forward. Anybody else found it yet?

addition

when i say 4 digits, I mean to say that the on entry of the 4th digit the screen goes back to normal.

I haven`t got any region 1 discs yet, has anybody tried opening the drawer, putting a region 1 disc in, trying some of the common codes ( ie 0123, 167 etc) and pressing play - this might be the way forward, but I`m not going to buy R1 discs until it`s proved.

Regards

Canky

I`ve got the same problem as you lot, need the code desperately and theres nowhere to find it. Anyone anywhere near cracking the code.

After searching every website i can possibly find, it seems no one knows the hack.........It also seems hardly anyone has heard of the actual player. I`m waiting with the rest of you who love the player, but are still waiting for a multi region code.

I bought 1 today, Cracking player...

But alias, I forgot to check whether or not there was a remote hack for it before I purchased it.............. Silly Sod :(

I also have a Goodmans 3500. When I open the drawer, I can only type 3 digits in (only 3 lines appear)

take out cd leave draw open goto custom setup and type 3333

There is no custom setup!

Looking into this. I litterally had an emial sent to me from another newsgruop with that info on it. I tried through setup with no joy. SOrry to send on a wild goose chase - I just didn`t check before I issued!!! SOZ ALL

I`m another in the same boat!
I believe that this is the same model as a Grundig GDV620-HT - but i can`t find a hack for this either.
Lets hope this alternative model may help someone finding an answer!

I suspect that the hardware is manufactured by a Korean company, and branded as Goodmans, or the Grundig 620 and possibly others.

I`m still looking, I am certain there is a hack, it`s just finding it.
