i want to share with all of you my experience for changing the "region code" (Local Set).
My TV is a Samsung UE22H5600AKXXU the firmware installed is the last [Version : 2116.1]
First try :
pressing on remote : INFO+MENU+MUTE+POWER (from stand by), it goes into service menu but the "LocalSet" is not visible
Second try :
download "ruSamsungTVCommunicator" unzip, disable firewall on my Win7 Ultim 64 bit, run ... nothing, the program refuse to work
Third try :
Build my own IR transmitter (http://wiki.samygo.tv/index.php5/Remote ... m_IR_codes)
... 2 IR leds, Jack, patience .... OK
download the wave files and try ... very difficult to see working, sometimes yes and sometimes no,
seems there are problems with IR receiver on TV set, used the IR extender that comes with the TV, better results,
info is working, mute is working, but unable to use "INFO_FACTORY_inv.wav",
after many times triyng to see working, an idea comes in my brain:
press INFO on remote then immediatly play "FACTORY_from_REMOTE_inv.wav" : WORKS !
i was able to change the Local Set to my zone !

some more hints:
- use WinMediaPlayer, i try VLC, not working
- use max volume on WinMediaPlayer
- use max volume on PC
- Start TV in normal mode
- IR leds of the transmitter pointed to the external IR
- distance between IR Leds and external IR : circa 10cm
- press INFO on remote pointing the IR of the TV
- after changing the local set press power on the remote to shut down the TV

Probably the file "INFO_FACTORY_inv.wav" is too speedy, or the two commands "info" and "factory" are too near eachother.

Hope this will be useful for someone ... in trouble as i was ....

Many thanks to all the people that provided the various programs, waves, etc !
An update ....

my TV set shows that there is an update ready to be installed,
accept, installed, now it's in rev. 2130 ... ALL OK
no problems at all !

furthermore, i was not able to use the wave file "INFO_FACTORY_inv.wav",
i worked around it and now i can tell you that I solved the problem (or for my TV is solved),
the following link point to a ZIP file containing the wave file i used and pics of my "IR extender"
https://www.dropbox.com/s/bo7fenp4xx0gq5m/IR.zip?dl=0
IR built from cutting an old tv remote ...

Hope all will be useful for somebody,
best regards

We have already new (stable) way of accessing EXTENDED SERVICE MENU using samyGOrc. Info should be already on wiki and if not search the forum :)

@zoelchat I just noticed that link in my description points only to the site with screenshots. Add on this website link on opening service menu :)
I do NOT support "latest fw" at ALL. If you have one you should block updates on router and wait for it to STOP being "latest":)
If you want me to help you please paste FULL log(s) to "spoiler"/"code" bbcodes or provide link(s) to pasted file(s) on https://pastebin.com Otherwise "NO HELP"!!!
If you want root DISABLE internet access to your device!!!!
DO NOT EVER INSTALL FIRMWARE UPGRADE !!!!

Don't worry wiki is coming, I'm busy these days and I can't be everywhere. If you're hurried feel free to do it yourself ;)

Ahhh, no hurry especially since I think I will have to postpone the release of H root because of "fake power off" bug :) If something is "on your list" that's good enough for me ;)

On this url:
http://wiki.samygo.tv/index.php5/How_To ... re_Updates
I think there should big f***ing TO OPEN EXTENDED SERVICE MENU DO THIS:
and there should be a link to separate wiki page with all the methods but I would but samyGOrc (as the easiest one) at the top :)

It's even on a *real* to-do list, not only in my brain ;)

It's already referenced as [1] in non-MST procedure (2.2.) where extended menu is needed. Maybe not big/clear enough, I'm going to see what I can do :)
You first need to unlock extended service menu by sending FACTORY+3SPEED keys to TV [1]

yeah but if we prepare step by step instructions (copy file using ftp, chmod in telnet, run this command and menu should open, etc.) it should be enough for "dummies". Also most people disable OTN AFTER rooting ;) Some don't know any other way and leave it ON. I we could get more people to disabled it I want it :D samyGOrc also works on C/D (not the version you gave link to) and probably (I think it's not confirmed) also opens extended service menu (I will try checking myself once I find some time ;)). Also I hope to soon have confirmation on H :)
