Hi,

Could anybody shed light on whether or not it is possible to change the default country on a UE40d5520 Smart TV?

I have changed the DNS settings already but obviously the inbuilt region on the TV needs to be changed to access apps from other countries.

Any help much appreciated.

Thank you!

If you're only looking to change your SmartHub country, the trick with ffwd,289,rwd should work (you enter smarthub, then press >> on the remote, then 2 8 9 then <<.... after that, you should get the list of countries and user agreements to accept/reject... after that, it'll delete your default widgets and install default widgets for country you chose.

First whether I would be able to use the BBC Iplayer in Macedonia if i change Smart Hub to English zone ?
whether it is possible to check which country is under defalt In Smart Hub UeD5520RW, i live in Macedinia and I want to change in England to use more app like the BBC iPlayer-app,
so i want to know which zone is under defalt zone for Samsung products in Macedonia to return back later to defalt zone
thx for your time here
no samsung.com.mk for suport only (http://www.samsung.com/rs/#latest-home for serbia -- http://www.samsung.com/at/si/ for slovenia and http://www.samsung.com/hr/#tv-audio-video-home for croatia)

I'd the same bother with model: UE40F8000ST

Short version. After inserting batteries in the 'smart touch' remote use one function of the remote, 'volume up' say. Then leave the remote alone for at least 30 minutes. After this it will work without further delay. Select the default country, press and hold the touch pad for a drop down menu to appear.

Granted,Samsung do say that the remote comes 'paired' and it does. I suspect though that this complex remote has a gazillion bluetooth channels that, on first use, need time to connect and initialize. A bluetooth speaker or other simpler bluetooth device typically needs 30 seconds for first use and perhaps this clever gizmo needs more time - just a thought. Whatever the reason, it did work for idiot me after I left it alone for 30 minutes. I hope this helps.
