Alright so last night I was just browsing YouTube and came along a video for jail breaking my ps3. I've never really thought about doing it but I tried it. I downloaded it and followed all the directions he told me to do. So after it was done "updating" the screen just went blue with no words or anything on it. I can't go into recovery mode or do anything. So if someone could help me that would be awesome. Thanks ill +rep for anyone that could help me

1. Turn off Playstation 3.
2. Hold the power button down; the system will turn on and turn off once again.
3. Once the System has been shutdown, re-press you finger until you hear 2 consecutive beeps
4. When you hear the 2 beeps take finger off power button.
5. You will be prompted to plug in your controller via USB and then hit the PS button
6. The Recovery menu will pop up.


Or Some tv's will output a blue screen if no signal is present try resetting the display settings by holding down the power button till it beeps twice.

Put a official ps3 update.pup on the root of a Usb drive that flashes when accessed (if you have one)in the right slot and start your Ps3,if the usb flashes you may have some hope of restoring it.
