I have a menu locked message on my Hannspree xv tv and now all I can do is turn it off and on. How can I unlock it? I'm using the remote that came with the tv.

To program a Hannspree remote to a Hannspree TV, first turn on the TV and then press and hold the "Code" button on the remote until the LED light turns on.

Next, enter the four-digit code for the TV using the number keys on the remote. If the TV turns off, press the "Code" button to save the code. If it doesn't turn off, try another code until you find one that works.

If you cannot find the four-digit code for your Hannspree TV, you can try using the code search feature on the remote. To do this, follow the steps for programming the remote but instead of entering a code, press and release the "Code" button and then press the "Power" button repeatedly until the TV turns off. Then, press the "Code" button to save the code.

If you are having trouble programming the remote, make sure you are aiming the remote directly at the TV and that you are not too far away. Also, check that the batteries in the remote are fresh and properly installed.

If you accidentally program the remote to the wrong TV or if you want to program it to a different TV, you can reset the remote to its default settings by pressing and holding the "Code" button for at least three seconds until the LED light turns off. This will erase any previously programmed codes.

Unplug the television from mains first take the batteries out the remote then plug the tele back and switch on from the television see what happens if it goes back to normal the you have the volume bottons jammed on your remote control

Press the "Menu" button to set the lock code for your JVC TV. A padlock icon will appear on the menu display.

Press "Zero" to access the lock code function then use the left and right arrows to select the four-digit number for your code. Use the up and down arrows to move to the next area of the display.

Select the up or down arrow to finish your lock code then use the left or right arrow to save your lock code settings and exit the menu. You can return to this display if you forget your four-digit lock code and set another code.

Write your four-digit lock code down and keep it in a safe, private area.

Select the locked TV channel you desire to watch or want to unlock. A message will appear on the display requesting you to enter your lock code to unlock the channel.
Unlock your JVC TV by entering your lock code on the 10-key pad. The message "Invalid Lock Code!" will appear on the screen if you enter the wrong lock code.


OR

Select "TV" from the menu then select "V-Chip" from the drop-down list on the screen. "Please Input Password" will appear on the screen.

Enter your four-digit password by selecting numbers on the 10-pad that appears on the V-Chip menu display or your remote control. Create a new password if you forget it by unplugging your TV power cord from the outlet then reconnect the power cord. This procedure resets your password to "0000." Enter four numbers for your new password using the keypad on the screen or your remote and select the arrow to advance to the next number. Press "OK" on your remote or select "OK" on the screen to set your new password.
Unlock a TV rating or TV channel by selecting "MPAA" or "TVPG" from the V-Chip menu. Use the up or down arrows to select the locked rating then select "OK" on the display or press the "OK" button on your remote control to unlock it. The MPAA represents the U.S. Motion Picture Association of America rating system, such as "NC-17," meaning not intended for viewers 17 years or younger.

In most cases, the main board might have to be replaced. If so, a software [firmware] update too might be necessary.

Hello corandvic,

On the remote control for the television you should see a button labeled Input. Turn on your DVD player and press the Input button on the TV remote until your picture appears.

menu is locked

To enable/disable the power lock, press the "Menu" and "Volume +" buttons together and hold, this should change to "unlocked". Also, there is an OSD menu lock as well that uses the "Vol -" and "Vol +" keys together.

You can use any RCA universal remote and then program per the users guide or use the website below to find the codes:

Hope this helps!

To unlock the Panel Lock, Parent Lock, or Child Lock, follow these steps:

1. Turn on your TV.
2. On the remote, press the Menu button. The Set-Up Menu appears.
3. Scroll to the Key Lock function and set function to Off.
4. Press the Exit button to exit.

Note: If you don't have a remote, you may be able to do the same thing by pressing the Menu button on the front or side panel of your TV and using the volume or channel up and down buttons on the TV to scroll to the Key Lock function and set it to Off.
