It looks like a dead power button to me.

But how it's possible this?
The phone before this he was on, and he worked normally,
It's the time to change telephone?

If you weren't programming nothing and it just started doing that, i don't think there's a way that the phone can get in that kind of state.
The power button in the nexus 5 is known to suffer this kind of problems and is easily fixable and is pretty cheap. In your case apparently it just died suddenly
Look for this one in youtube (possibly a temporary fix):
NEXUS 5 REPEATEDLY SHUTS ON AND OFF (FIXED)

Well there you go!
Be advised, I believe it's just a temporary fix. When you have the chance, replace the button... so you can keep enjoying the best phone ever lol

When I long press the power button and choose shut down it does not shut down. It restarts. If I choose shutdown a 2nd time, it will then actually shutdown
Strange, never heard of this. This is a constant trend? I suppose if I were in your shoes I'd do one of two things:
1) Factory reset
2) Use Fastboot to unlock the bootloader and then flash the factory image via fastboot again
Although, I am not sure either of these options will solve the problem they are the first two steps I would take to resolve it.
Had this once!
Happened to me a little earlier too...
I bet in every one of these cases the phone was plugged in and or charging...yes or no?
Ive had it happen to me too, but it was plugged in
The phone is still stock and it wasn't charging

Don't worry, my new N5 does exactly the same, as I just found out 10 minutes ago. Seems like a new and glorious KK 4.4 bug to me.

Mine does exactly the same! I hope it is a K4,4 bug as well.
Mine works ok and powers off
Mine does this too every time. Not plugged in to charger or anything.

mine does this once in a while also...
Mine did this the very first time I tried to shut it down after getting it on release. However it has behaved correctly ever since.
I had this yesterday as well, I'm glad I found this thread because I thought something was up with mine, hopefully they'll fix it in the next update.
can anyone that is having this frequently check whether just after one of these reboots there is a file in /proc called last_kmsg?
thanks!

It automatically turns on after I shut it off'',,'it's annoying
Long pressing the power buttton for about 10 seconds is the same as a battery pull afaik, so not sure this a bug.
the described issue happened to me a few times but I'm sure is due to the case I have - basically the power button is re-pressed and the phone turns on after being shut down. other than that never used power off too much after going custom rom - most of them have a reboot option and the phone is pretty much on 24/7.
Today I got my nexus 5, but unfortunately I have a lot of problems. After entering my Google account information and walk away for 5 minutes, my phone was locked. When I came back, I wanted to unlock my phone. My phone failed, and the screen remained black. I tried to play, what with the buttons, but the screen remained black. I received some weird stripes, and the phone was very hot. After a while the phone restarts, and came back in android. Then I got an update to 4.4.2, after restarting everything seemed to work well. After an hour I got the same problems again, phone failed, and the screen remained black and locked. I get a message about QHUSB_BULK driver is not installed, and MTP failed.
Phone is factory and nothing is installed, it was the first setup.
So now I'm still with a black screen and locked phone
First try a reset looks like a screen issue though

How to reset, I cant shutdown the phone, the screen is black and I see no shutdown button.
Make sure it's charged. Press and hold the power button (for 15 seconds or so). But it sounds like you may need to RMA it. I'd be contacting Google if I were you.

Friend, thank you for using help, comm was the same problem and following your instructions, the phone is working again Lol
sorry my english .. :laugh: :good:
My Nexus 5 is stuck in a bootloop. Each time through the loop, it gets to the Google logo, and then reboots. Each loop takes about 3-4 seconds. If I hold the correct keys to get to the bootloader, it still keeps looping, just looping to the bootloader screen, not the Google logo screen. I have tried letting go of the keys after different lengths of time, and I can never get it to stay at the bootloader, it just keeps looping.
And so, I cannot access recovery.
I should not that this is the phone's behavior while it is plugged in. If it is unplugged, it immediately ceases the bootloop and just goes completely dead, unresponsive.
Any ideas, guys?
Thanks!
If you can access the bootloader it's fixable. Flash the factory image.

I got mine replaced at LG service center.

hi i have the same problem... i just kept fidgeting with the power button and tryin to pull it outwards till the phone actually switched onn..
i feel this usually happens on the weekend lol
are u on any ROM ... im on PA dunno if thats what causing this ?!
it may be the power button since that makes sense .. but i managed to turn my phone on past 3 weekends .. so it could be a software problem as well ??

Software can't stop your phone from turning on If pulling out the power button allows it to boot.

It's the power button. I had the same issue on another device. It went away for awhile and then came back. Replacing the power button fixed it

I think all the answers are in this thread already.
If it wont boot to bootloader and keeps rebooting, its power button issue and needs to be repaired

Yeap. Had the same problem. Saw this post. Used a multimeter to check the Power Button failure. Terminals are shown to be shorted, even when it is not clicked. Swap the button out with a newer button. Problem solved

hi everyone
also had a boot loop issue.as soon as i plug in the power cable to charge it boot loops
got the power button replaced but its still not booting up?
any other ideas?
i can get into bootloader i can reboot or power off from there fine
if i chose recovery tho.it doesnt go into recovery>
help please
Mayur
I literally just woke up this morning and its stuck in a bootloop. It constantly reboots, and when i get into recovery mode it waits a second and then selects the thing thats on-screen. Really aggravating. Every time i use recovery i can only get upto either Restart bootloader<Start>Poweroff before it selects whats on screen.... This is the weirdest problem ever it boots into recovery why the F*** would it not let me select what i want. Is there a way to manually do anything through ADB??? Wasnt even flashing anything, was on the same custom rom for a few months.
Extreme solution if better one isn't found: flash factory image

If you bought it from Google play, you can RMA it in its current state. LG where you send it if you bought it anywhere else, can be a bit trickier.
You may be able to pull the power button a bit to aliviate the issue

I've no idea, never had to RMA. Just tell them the truth. It's rebooting and cannot boot into anything because you suspect a stuck power button

My Nexus 5 is stuck on boot loop. It won't turn on its own. The moment i connect to a charger, the Google logo flashes and the phone vibrates and after a few seconds does the same thing. Please help. I am unable to go to the recovery screen either. Please help if any of you have faced similar issues. I am in India. 16 GB Nexus 5, bought in January.

Sounds like the power button is stuck. Try pushing it hard many times but you'll probably have to have it replaced.

Well i banged the phone down on sofa in frustration. And now its back to working normally. Spoke to Google Play support as well and they suggested to keep the phone in Safe Mode and observe if it happens again. I think its a loose power button problem and not really anything to do with the apps or S/W. What do you guys suggest?

Since it's up and running now, you can't technically file a RMA. If this issue pops up again, instead of banging your phone, call support and setup RMA.

Wish i knew that before. Now i have 2 months left of warranty and i don't know what to do?
If it is good til your warranty expires... Then acts up. It can be fixed for a reasonable cost.
