PS2 fmcb not working on different consoles

[Moronz]

Hello, I have been hacking MCs with fmcb for years for many people
I started to have a problem with fmcb recently, I hacked a MC in my console with the cross region option so it could work on all consoles that support this exploit, but when I put the MC in another console the console just gives me a black screen. If I put the same MC on my console it works
I hacked the MC in question in the target console and the MC boots into fmcb in that console, but now it stops working on mine
The consoles are both the fat PS2 model 30001, in fact there is third one of them same model and the MC doesn't work other than in the console it was hacked
What could be the problem, I use the installer that is shared here on psx place while using the Cross region option always

Which exactly installer? Use official one and try again.

I used one from El_isra first, it is on his github, I have used it for a long time without problems
Then I used the one from sp193 found here on the pinned thread but it gave me the same problem
It is weird that fmcb works one the installed console but not in others, even though I used the cross region option

I know you did it for years, but you did use a Sony 8mb MagicGate, right?

You can only get fake chinese MC nowadays, and like I said in my initial post, the MC do launch FMCB on the console they were hacked. But stop working when the MC is moved to another console
I found the problem however. I went and formated my original MC again with the same usb and same installer I used with the other MCs, and it worked on the 3 consoles I wanted
It seems like the new fake MCs have a problem, whatever it is, it only makes them work on the console it was hacked, even though the cross region was picked
I have seen fake MCs that don't work with FMCB but this is the first time I have seen fake MCs that only work with 1 console

Probably because of different PS2 versions?
I'd like to help more but all I got is an OEM MC and a Slim 77001.
I also have a 'probably' fake MC with FMCB preinstalled from Amazon, and it works fine too.

Edit: Just realized they are all all tge same versions. I'm out of ideas haha.

All of them are the same model, in fact my initial mc with fmcb came from an online shop too. And that one didn't work with one of the 2 new consoles, even though it show ups in the ps2 menu and can see its contents.

Try with PS2BBL and KELFBinder.

It will give more info on what the hell is going on.

You could even try the "magicgate test" funcion and check if the kbit and kc fields are the same (or not) on all the models

KELFBinder doesn't work for me, just gives me a black screen
Using a usb fat32 to launch it from
UPDATE:
The KELFBinder version 1.0.1 worked
I got a new MC that clearly looks fake, it has no Magicgate logo, but the test was passed
