Need Area Option values from an LG OLED C5 (Europe / webOS 25)

Hi everyone,

I need help from someone who owns an LG OLED65C56LA (or another European LG C5 running webOS 25).

I imported my TV from Japan and I’m trying to switch it to the European region so I can use my French LG account, LG ThinQ, and the European LG Content Store.

I already have full access to the Service Menu (0413), but I don’t want to guess the Area Option value, as changing it incorrectly can brick features or cause compatibility issues.

IMPORTANT

Please don’t simply reply “use 3122” or another old Area Option value.

I know older LG OLEDs commonly used values such as 3122, but LG appears to have changed the Area Option tables on newer webOS 25 / 2025 models. My current Japanese TV already uses 4951, which confirms that the numbering is different from previous generations.

I’m looking for the actual values displayed on a European LG C5, not values from older models.

Could someone with a European LG C5 please check the following?

Open the Service Menu (0413).
Go to 1. Adjust Check.
Take a photo or tell me the values of:
Area Option
Country Group
Group Code / Group
Your exact TV model

My current values are:

Model: OLED65C56LA
webOS: 25
Region: Japan
Area Option: 4951
Country Group: 20 / JA

I’m not asking anyone to modify anything on their TV—only to read the values already shown in the Service Menu.

A photo of the screen would be perfect.

Thank you very much!

Close-up macro photo of a specific chip on a working ASUS TUF GAMING B650M-PLUS WIFI for repair reference

Hey everyone,

I have a damaged ASUS TUF GAMING B650M-PLUS WIFI motherboard and I'm taking it to a technician for micro-soldering repair.

We found a physically damaged/shorted SO-8 surface-mounted chip (marked "S0 6G0401") located directly between the CMOS battery and the main top PCIe x16 slot.

To help my technician find the exact replacement part and solder it in the correct orientation, I desperately need a clear, high-resolution close-up photo of that exact area from a perfectly working board. We need to see how the pristine chip sits and what the surrounding solder pads are supposed to look like (since some pads on mine look melted/bridged).

If anyone owns this exact motherboard and could take a quick macro shot of the area right next to the CMOS battery/PCIe slot, I would be incredibly grateful!

Thanks in advance for the help!
