Seems you have the red light of death ( RLOD) . Can you get into the boot loader?
Plug in the charger, hold power button and volume down button. If you can get into bootloader then use the volume key to select "power down" and use power button to choose that option. Then just leave the phone plugged in for a while.
I've had it only take maybe 5 minutes and other times take an hour. Try turning it on, if it just vibrates then shows the Google screen and reboots then redo the steps and leave it plugged in and let it sit for longer

Check the file you flashed. Sounds like you flashed a ROM not meant for the nexus 4 like a nexus 7 ROM.
If that's the case you are bricked and only a JTAG will save it.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
If you can get in bootloader:
download the ROM from computer (correct one)
get into recovery
mount usb storage
put ROM in phone
flash rom
wipe
reboot
you might have to hold power and volume down for awhile.. 10+ seconds
You posted this in the wrong forum btw.. next time Q&A would be appropriate

See if you can power it on in the download mode. I forgot the button combo, but it's volume up or down (or both) and power.

My N7 just randomly died. It's been working great for a month and now suddenly won't turn on. The battery was very low and it probably shut down from that. But after plugging in to recharge, nothing!! No power, won't turn on, has no indication it's charging ... totally dead. I bought retail but if i return it now, my data is not wiped. I'm afraid that after i exchange it, anyone either at the store or at google/asus that gets it back and gets it turned on will have access to all my accounts.
any suggestions?
does it connect when you plug it via usb?

It's 100% dead so it doesn't connect at all, not power not usb. Very weird, it's had zero issues until now and it just randomly died ... no trigger
Since you didn't provide info on how you were trying to charge it...
o are you using the OEM charger and cable?
o how long did you let it charge (let it go a couple hours)
o When you try to start it up after letting it charge for a while, press and hold the power button for a long time 30+ seconds
If you can't get it to ever power on, you will never get the data off since that is the only way to access the memory on the device.
I'll just leave this here...

Hi
I managed to bricked my N4 after running antutu. Is there any way to revive the phone?
I can't start the phone. If I plug the phone into my wall plug, I see constant red LED light.
I've tried the following
1) Press vol down + power button - Didn't work
2) Press vol down and up + power button - Didn't work
Is there any other way methods?

I am afraid that RMA is your only option
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Hmmmm and you just needed to make new thread without searching as there was someone yesterday with exactly the same problem and of course there were million more before you. You have 3 options:
1. Leave it to charge for maybe a day or leave it for say a day and then charge and see if that helps and then charge.
2. Open the phone and disconnect and reconnect battery terminal. There should be YouTube video from one of the members.
3. RMA

No download mode, the only thing i could get out of it was a red led
You could try to charge it whole night, and then access the recovery /download mode, or maybe open it and unplug battery terminal and plug it back after few minutes....
If that won't help, I think RMA is the only solution (they should not be able to check it if it wont give anything but black screen)
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
I don't think RMA covers user mistakes Its hard bricked if you flashed the wrong ROM. You have to send it away for J-Tag. Likely your only solution.
Gonna ask to the local LG store for repairing costs, then i'll value the best option

Once flashed a sammy N7100 rom on a I9300, the phone was dead as a duck and rooted on top of that. Got it repaired under warranty :angel:
Try turning it in and see what happens, i doubt they will be able to tell the phone has the wrong software and the bootloader is unlocked.Good luck
Thought repairs should be done worldwide but swaps only in the country where you bought it.

The problem is the warrantly is in USA, and the phone is here in Italy.
Did you lost all the personal datas?
I had the same issue. Windows Explorer on my Win 7 computer was not downloading the image properly from Google, and when I tried to install the factory image I got the red led and it was stuck on the "X" screen. After trying several times to get it into download mode, I discovered that I could eventually catch it if I hit the volume down and power buttons at a certain exact time during bootup, at which time I reloaded a non-corrupted factory image and I was up and running.

So my nexus had been unplugged and without charge for about 3 weeks or so, I've been very busy at work. I try and connect the tablet so that i can use again and the screen flickers for an instant and nothing happens, I don't see the white icon charging animation and no response after that. It's my tablet done or is there a solution for this. Thanks to anybody that can help.

Ok, I don't really know what exactly the problem is. But I think the battery seems to be dead. because if it is still good, at least it shows the indicator light when it's plugged with charger.. If u have a simple tool to test battery energy maybe u can find out. or maybe try another battery..
Leave it plugged into the charger for a good while and then hold down the power button hard, for about 30 seconds. See if that forces it on.
How long did you leave it plugged in for? It may take a few hours...

Your device is hibernating to prevent further damaging the battery. Plug it in... boot to bootloader... select power off using the volume keys... the tablet will now charge normally

hi
My problem is solved, I have a friend who had the same problems with the tablet Nexus 7 16GB, the back of the unit opens easily with just a fingernail to open a case as remote and actually the battery plug is not fully inserted into the camera, a little bit of nail to reconnect the cable and now my tablet displays well 100% load.

Yup - there is a sticky that covers this method, and all the other methods as well. For anyone else suffering from similar N7 issues, be sure to check it out. Either go to stickies in this Troubleshooting section, or use this link.

Fix the power button
You could attempt just plugging it in and unplugging it a bunch, I have had some phones in the past that this works for, but if you are rooted I know at least one version of twrp recovery caused my phone to power on when plugged in and it would boot to recovery, from there you could just boot to os. Of course you would still need to get it to power on at least once first, so my guess is you need to fix the power button

open phone, remove the power button board(its connected to the mobo with 2 golden pins, they just contact with mobo, so you can just lift away), and do a little short on 2 golden contacts on the mobo till phone turns on
