Hello everyone,

a couple of things.

First: LG Service Remote Control app actually works. it only costs 1.99$ and its available at play store.

IMPORTANT: application works through IR blaster and thus you need to download it to a phone that supports it. I know for sure that the latest XIAOMI phones still have one. I used a XIAOMI Note 8 Pro.

Second: After downloading the app, press ADJUST button. It open the service menu. Go to AREA Setting. My TV was bought in US and moved to Europe/Greece. The default settings were:

Area Option: 22282

Continent Index: 10

Language&Country: US

HW Settings: US 

At the location setting at the menu was showing: United Stares, Mexico, Canada, Others.

I found a friend's LG TV purchased in Greece at the same time and did the same. Navigate to the Area option menu and copied its settings

Area Option: 3122

Continent Index: 50

Language&Country: EU

HW Settings: EU

Went back to my TV, modified 22282 to 3122, automatically Continent Index, Language&Country, HW Settings were changed.

Close TV, re-open it, it displays WebOS, doing its staff for a while, and the you have the same menu with a locally purchased TV, Location, Broadcast area, menu language. My TV now displays the menu in Greek, and at the LG store i can find local apps such as COSMOTE TV, ERTFLIX, TuneIn Radio etc.

Lastly: 3122 is EU general. In some posts i show that 3122 is UK and 3124 Italy. By using 3122 it popped up all European countries to choose from. 

Thank you,

Hello, i bought a 75UN7070 LG TV and at the location menu it only shows Canada, Mexico, US, others. TV was purchased at US military base in Greece. There are multiple free local apps similar to netflix available in LG content store in Greece that i would like to download but because the area/location is different they are not available. If i enter service menu and navigate to area settings, changing it to 3122 (UK) or 3124 (ITALY) will show them? How can we find out whats the code for Greece? anybody knows?

@T0BlAS FYI: there may be another setting section for actual country or region coding. Those other numbers may be "subordinate" to the "region" (say Europe, Asia etc), and country codes. Make a note of them before you change them as the TV could become inoperative.

I found this in a related forum, but was from 2015, so later TV models may well have a totally different setup or menu options. The country code for UK appears to be 3122.

"I have LG 60UB850T purchased and using it in Dubai. Managed to change location using LG Service Menu Explorer app for Android downloaded from Google Playstore and installed on my Samsung 10.1 Tablet.
With TV on, run the app and select Infra-red as means of connection.
App opens to look like remote control.
Press button which looks like a 'red Wand' icon on right hand side.
You are asked to enter one of two codes, mine was 0413.
You are now presented with EX-ADJ menu, scroll down to 'Area Settings' using the down arrows and press enter.
Change the top line 4 digit to the code of your choice. 3122 for UK, 1793 for US etc.
Press 'red wand' until service menu closes and just have TV, reboot the TV (turn off then on). WEBOS should reload.
Go to TV settings menu and select Location, your selected continent should be selected all you have to do is select country of service."
