Nexus 4 - Red LED and Charging icon - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So, I updated my N4 to 4.3 a couple of days ago. Also rooted.
I figured I should flash franco.kernel again, so I flashed the latest nightly (r165) via the franko.updater app. This resulted in a bootloop with Google logo.
Then I restarted to Recovery and flashed stock kernel again, through WugFresh.
Now my phone is dead. When I try to turn it on, the front LED is constant red. Not blinking. When I release the power button, the charging icon appears on the screen. I have tried all buttons... Pwr+VolDn, Pwr alone. Pwr+VolUp. Pwr+VolUp+VolDn.
Battery was charged overnight, and unplugget about 2 hours ago.
Does anyone have any idea as to how I can get in to recovery again?
EDIT: Unplugged and got back to bootloop. I'll try to backup everything and install a fresh copy of 4.3.

Charging issues (solved)

purchased a new Galaxy S4, from sprint.
rooted using auto-root and installed teamwin recovery. all good. kept using the phone flawlessly for three days.
was going to flash CM10.2 through the recovery when i noticed the big button in the CyanogenMod home advertising the installer.
since this phone is compatible, then decided to try that.
CM11 installed right away and worked great, charged the phone, took a couple pictures, great.
then an update was requested to the ROM, so i installed it.
that update resets all my settings, so i started downloading all my apps and applying the settings again.
when the phone was around 18% of charge, i plugged the phone and nothing happened.
tried another phone with stock android in the same charger and everything went well fine so, i turned off the
SGS4 and plugged it again.
it vibrated once, (like it was about to start charging) but nothing happened. a few seconds later, it vibrated again, and that went on and on...
turned back on the phone in recovery, i noticed that TeamWin was replaced by ClockWorkMod recovery.
wiped Dalvik, cache and did a factory reset. turned phone back off and plugged the charger.
now it vibrates once, the screen lights up, a drained battery shows up and nothing happens, (just like it froze there).
the phone is not taking charge and its dead jim. doesn't have enough charge to power on.
havent tried anything else.
any clues or workarounds?
please and thanks.
EDIT: downgraded to CM10.2.1 and installed chronic kernel for CM10.2, problem solved.

Nexus 10 powers off during boot screen

Hey all,
Just some details before the background.
I was running a stock with a unlocked bootloader for a while now. I basically only use my nexus now to watch netflixs and HBOgo. Got the tablet over four years ago.
This morning after it's nightly charge I went to unlock it and it froze up. I rebooted it, noticed the date was off (Jan 1st) and froze after I unlocked it. Reboot again, it made it to the screen where it was optimizing my apps but the screen starting flickering and having artifacts, and powered off. Now it will power itself off 5 or so seconds into the boot animation.
I've tried going into recovery via the bootloader but when I select it and hit the power button it just turns it self off. I then used the nexus toolbox to reflash a stock rom (along with a factory reset), and TWRP. I tried booting up again and same thing. I then went into TWRP and start troubleshooting, but the screen is starting to flicker and have artifacts, then powers off.
Is the hardware dead on this?
Sorry for the jumbled mess of details, i've been bouncing around trying to troubleshoot/fix this.
PIT files
PIT files
My nexus 10 has the boot loop problem and I think I have been left with the only option of Re-Partition but I need the PIT file. Can anybody help or provide this file?
I have tried everything else (fastboot, adb, temporary custom recoveries, Nexus Root Toolkit) with no success.
Is the battery original? If so, it's possible the battery could be reaching its end.

Note N910G very long reboot

I just bought a note 4 N910G .... I installed TWRP and flashed a custom rooted rom marshmallow... I noticed reboots are very very long (whatever types of reboot; normal, recovery or download mode)... I don't know if this happened because i flashed TWRP.
So, i flashed back stock unrooted 6.0 rom but the pb still persists... reboots take like 5 - 10 mins .... it has black screen thinking that it is turned off (pressing power button or any button does not do anything) but if i wait like 5- 10 mins, it actually reboots..
any clue?

After Logo black screen, no root, stock rom 4.4.2

Hallo,
i hope someone can help me here.
After a low battery my phone doesnt turn on any more. After some research i thought it might by the "death battery problem". So i but the phone on Laptop Charge port for 6 hours and i got it booted in to system.
But only for some seconds and it turned of again. So i decided to buy a new battery. Installed it and tried to boot. Sometimes it bootet in to System, sometime just got Blackscreen. I tried hard reset in it showed some errors. That was some days ago. Now it boots and everytime blackscreen. I tried also longer presses like 10 secs and 60secs. I tried fast press for hard reset with boot logo. I have no detection on Windows. I never rooted the phone and it has still stock rom. Must be the latest kitkat 4.4.2 i guess. I checked every cable. No charge led or logo.
Hey dude check out my video https://youtu.be/rpmbk9RFE_U there is step by step instruction how to reflash your rom... Just watch im here for any questions.

Stuck in Boot Loop (Recovery mode doesn't work)

Hi, I replaced the battery in my Moto X Pure edition and when I tried to power it on it just kept restarting. The phone would not power on before the battery was replaced and was basically bricked. Anyway, I can't get it to boot into recovery mode or show the exclamation point. I can open the bootloader but it seems to just ignore it and after I exit it nothing changes. I don't know what to do. If any of you know please help!
P.S. I never reflashed the ROM or anything everything is stock.
Similar issue
I am unable to get TWRP to load on my phone, I woke up two days ago and had seemingly powered off overnight despite it being on a charger and the notification light was still on (I'm using lineageOS 14.1 so the light under speaker grill is functional) after powering the phone on I started getting Google play services stopped working messages. Trying to fix it I cleared the cache for the app and rebooted, the issue persisted so I decided to load a back up through TWRP but it will not load for me. It just loops the loading screen for TWRP. Any useful ideas or insights would be greatly appreciated.
