Help PS3 Slim Bricked?

My PS3 Slim (CECH-2501A) turns on but no screen shows up. Its stays on. When I try to follow this http://www.ps3hax.net/showthread.php?t=30738 guide the downgrade file installs but the dongle doesn't light up. The e3 flasher log shows no errors. how do I fix this problem.

Important Information:
I have the E3 Flasher (Limited) installed. I soldered a wire from Tristate to SBE. Connected A to SBCE and cut the connection between A and B. The ps3 was working fine with cfw. I was trying to dual Boot with 4.11

I had the cfw switch up when I had cfw rogero 3.1. when I switched all 1-6 down and my harddrive it went to the "plug in controller screen"
I updated to 4.11 and now I am where I am. Please help


Thanks for your time

Should have installed OFW 3.55 before updating, there is your problem, if you don't have a nor back up you are SOL

It is a good one since I used it to unbrick ps3 in the past. do you know of a tutorial I can follow because when I get to the downgrading step theirs no power coming from the usb meaning my e3 flasher wont do its magic...

Thanks for a reply
