Buddy dont do that your console is bricked and it will not work anymore because of bad flashing! NEVER UPDATE IN SERVICE MODE..
Because your on 3.55 there IS a solution.
Simply by following the downgrade method you should be fine.
1. Get a USB.
2. As the only thing on your USB put the Lv2diag.self, and 3.41 Firmware on.
3. Insert to the right USB slot.
4. Turn PS3 on and it shouldnt boot for about 2-3 minutes
5. When it shuts off it's done downgrading.

6. Your PS3 should be fixed.
NOTE: you can find the 3.55 downgrading files off Google, Go check Psgroove. as I know they have it.
