PS3 freezing and not recognizing controller or tv now
 
Recently I had my slim PS3 jailbroken and now its running Rogero 4.30 v2.03 CFW. Everything was working great until today. While playing The Walking Dead the PS3 froze and it wouldn't turn off using the front power button. So I unplugged the power cable, turned it back on, and then it said that my file system was corrupted. I then restored the file system and it seemed everything was back to normal. I started playing again and it froze after about 10 minutes with grey fizzles everywhere. I turned off the PS3 using the power button, and now it won't output a signal to my tv, and it won't connect to my controller. I've tried going to the restore menu but it still won't recognize the tv or the controller. i have also tried resetting the video output settings and still it doesn't show up.
Any ideas or help would be much appreciated.

you have glod. your gpu is gone. your could try a reball service for permanent fix or can try to reflow it although it will not last long

How much is a reball service, and is it reliable? Also are you sure it couldn't be related to me unplugging the power cable, and corrupting the hard drive?I've looked at videos online and the tv doeen't show green wavy lines like most GLOD's its more gray and black spot freezing. If it is a GLOD can you recommend anyone for a reball service?

That's crap after having it jailbreaked. Did you get someone to flash it for you?

If so go back to them, it might be cheaper

Yeah I did have someone do it for me, so I am going to PM them. Anyways just wondering what causes GLOD's? Just so I can avoid it in the future.

bad solder or a crack cause it. how is caused is simply a matter of physics, hot&cold. is nothing we can do to stop it. in my opinion nor phats are stronger then slim ps3. it has to do with the pecentage of different metals used on the mobo (for example: reflow on phats last much longer then slim ps3)

After searching my area for possible repair services I've come up with nothing. I don't know of any services that are reliable and offer a reball. One repair shop told me over email that the GPU needed to be replaced, and reballed and my best bet was to send it to sony. I want to keep my jailbreak so I really dont want to send it to sony. Does anyone know of any reball services, and if there is in fact a possibility of my PS3 needing a new GPU? Also my PS3 now will turn on and look normal for a couple of minutes but then will freeze and give me the grey fizzling freeze screen. Some advice or help would be much appreciated I'm really at a loss here.
