When you flash a bad backup to a ps3 and then restart your console, you will receive GLOD. This is fixable by flashing a good backup to the console (if you have one..)
It's permabricked if you don't have a good backup..

Others will correct me but I think you soft bricked your console. You're going to have to solder your e3 cable to the tristate.
Question for others more experienced: This sounds crazy but, is it possible to "transplant" a dump from another ps3 running the same FW and model number to one that has this problem?
I don't believe that is possible.. but you can transplant a physical NOR chip from one ps3 to another (difficult)..assuming you have matching dumps to go with it..
