Re: Nexus 4 dead in the morning

 

The Nexus 4 will do this when the battery gets extremely drained. In some
cases they can be revived by plugging into wall outlet with the original
charger (higher current) and after a time press and hold the power button
for at least 20 secs, to hopefully see the red light, then allow to
continue charging.

Failing that, there are instructions available on how to open the phone and
remove and reinsert the battery, for a hard reset which should lead to a
red light and ability to charge.
