Factory/service mode brick?

I've been having a go at jailbreaking my PS3 using psfreedom and an android phone. I couldn't get it going, and noticed an option to put it into factory/service mode. Thinking this may give me some more options, I gave it a go. Nothing good seemed to be happening, so I read about & put lv2diag.self on a USB stick to exit. Now my PS3 starts and turns off after around 10 seconds, or stays in but with no output with the USB stick in. Is there any way to fix this, or have I just made myself a very expensive paperweight?

you used the wrong file what you need to do is use the droid to re-enter Factory/Service Mode then on an empty USB stick put lv2diag.self file 1 & the FW update for whichever FW you have on your PS3 put it in right most USB port turn it on wait for update if all goes well power should go off after 7-10 minutes then empty USB stick now add lv2daig.self file 2 to the USB stick, re-insert in PS3 (right most USB port) and push power
