Bricked PS3

Hello. I had a problem when updating the system, it froze and then it went into a loop where it would do something and restart. So I formated the HDD and now I'm having a green light, instead of blue. Video is showing up only if I go into Safe Mode and from safe mode I cannot do anything. If I choose one of the options it will either power off. When I press rebuild database it says cannot access the HDD or smth.

Data base is not rebuildable if you formatted the hard drive I think, you may have to reinstall whatever version firmware you were on. In the setup menu under system update.:sco hmmthink:

Try another HDD, it sounds like a HDD problem. If you can access safe mode its technically not bricked.
