Any more info? Is the console currently running? Does it reach the XMB? Is it playing discs still?

No you will not.

It is most likely not a fatal brick, if so.

Press the power button to turn it on and hold the button down. You will hear one beep when it turns on, and then one more beep, in which you should let go.

This will clear and reset the video settings..

Maybe also confirm it doesn't work on another tv, with other cables etc..

If all of that doesn't help, and you can't get to recovery menu, then your hdd may have taken a dump.. I suppose at that point you could replace your hdd with a known working 2.5" sata hdd.

Let us know how it goes.

If it is the problem, you should boot up, most likely with the screen asking you to connect a control and install a firmware. You would install your last cfw, or a downgrader and then your cfw.
