Region Free Sony BDP-S470 player remote commands???

[Bluyoda]

Hi everyone!

I have a friend, whose Sony BDP-S470 was supposedly modified by the third party seller on Amazon, he bought it from in order to play any region BD/DVD, but it's neither playing Adaptation, nor The Fantastic Mr. Fox, so my question is:

Are there any specific remote control commands you must make to switch regions, or is it simply faulty?

Does anyone have a modded Sony S470?

Thanks in advance.

On my Sony S360 you have to press either 1, 2 or 3 on the remote with the power off for region's A, B or C as they don't switch region's automatically.

Could possibly the same.

I've already told my friend, and will report back, if it worked or not.
