Oh, right. But first, it was confirmed that the day/night cycle is accelerated in the demo because of the time limit. Also, the big red sign will disappear only after you leave the camp once you complete step 7.
Here's what the dude said:
You'll need cheatengine http://www.cheatengine.org/downloads.php
and, of course, the Just Cause 2 demo
STEP 1
First, start cheatengine, then start the game.
Don't leave the camp area.
STEP 2
Click the icon in the top left corner (looks like a computer and magnifying glass)
A small list will appear, somewhere in that list is JustCause2.exe double click that
STEP 3
Type in 1800 (which is technically your time remaining) and push enter.
On the left of the cheat engine is a list of codes, we'll get back to this in a moment
STEP 4
Next, alt tab back into the game, exit the camp and let the timer run down (even for just a second).
Alt tab back to the cheat program, and put in 1800 MINUS the amount of seconds that passed. (so if the demo timer went down 1 second, it would be 1799)
You'll notice the list of codes has gotten smaller. Keep repeating this step until there is only one code (often it will happen on the first try)
STEP 5
On the cheat engine, next to the list of codes there is a small red arrow, click that to 'activate' the one code you have left.
It will now be copied to the bottom area.
STEP 6
Right click on the code in the bottom area, choose 'change record' and click 'value'
Set the new value to 0
Now you can alt-tab back into the game, it will tell you you have run out of time, but will not stop you playing. You can now play as long as you want and even go outside of the demo area.
Please note that if you quit the game and start it again later, you'll need to search for the codes again as they can change.
TIP
Once you've got the hang of searching for cheats, you can do it with anything.
For instance, you can use those same steps for ammo (just put in bullets remaining instead of the time).
EXPERIMENTAL
STEP 7
(yep, a 'secret' step)
Whilst ingame, quit to the main menu (NOT out of the game entirely) and start a new session.
Then, while still in the camp, alt-tab back to the cheat, your code will have a value of 1800, change that to 0.
WHY STEP 7?
This will avoid you having that big red "Time ran out" type message once you leave the camp. Also sometimes when activating the cheat pre-step 7, your parachute will (as a result of game time being over) auto-descend very quickly, this (so far) avoids that.
EDIT: Unfortunately I have discovered calling black market can re-trigger the time notice, further study is needed
