Describe the issue
So, I wanted to read japanese discs on my modded (I don't know which chip is there) PAL console, so I installed MechaPwn 3.0 Release Candidate 4 (RC4) with FMCB v1.965.
Once I installed it on the second boot I chose the first out of three options and after plugging off AC I managed to boot Japanese disc. But it's possible only once, after I get it out and try some other disc, it doesn't work. And at the same time PAL backup and PAL originals don't work as well. I tried uninstalling MechaPWN by choosing restore the original patch set and after that choosing uninstall the exploit patch with the same result. One step backwards, I also chose force unlock with zero results. Continuing, I managed to get back to work PAL discs by unplugging USB stick drive Mechapwn is on.
So, I have very weird way to use Japanese discs for now, is it expected working behaviour?

AKuHAK said this in another post on this forum, maybe that's the issue with your ps2 version:
Here is what he said (credits goes to him) : On 50k and 70k, there is no way to bypass region restrictions.
