No, the plane didn't do anything to the phone.
Did the battery die? Did you stick the phone on a charger after it turned off?
Best guess is that it's overheated to the thermal shutdown limit.
Leave it a while then try powering it back on

na, when you hit the safety shutdown temp, all it does is shut down, you can boot it right after. ive reached it many times(on purpose), it works.
what the op is describing sounds like the rlod on the nexus 4(red light of death). it happens when the phone thinks it went below 0%. on the n4 there are two solutions, one works sometimes, the other all the time. the one that works sometimes is leave it on the charger for several hours, then try to boot into the bootloader, then shut off the phone from there and keep charging. the method that works 100% is to remove the back cover, disconnect the battery, then reconnect it. this is a hard reset for the battery, and works 100% of the time on the nexus 4.

if it was something that happened on its own(without you tinkering with your phone), then yes.
thanks

You may want to give this procedure a try, its copied directly from Google's product support page for the Nexus 7.
Make sure there isn’t any dust or lint in the power port.
Using the original power adapter and USB cable, plug your Nexus 7 into a functioning power outlet. Nexus 7 has specific power requirements, and the USB cable and power adapter that are included are designed to meet those requirements.
Ensure the power cord is securely connected to the tablet and the power adapter.
After 1 minute, check to see if a battery icon appears on the screen.
If the battery icon appears, press & hold the Power button for 15 to 30 seconds to see if the device turns on.
If the battery icon doesn't appear, try accessing the Android bootloader menu:
Press & hold the Volume down button. While holding Volume down, press & hold the Power button for at least 10 seconds until you see an Android robot and the word Start on the screen.
Press the Volume down button until Power off is highlighted. Press the Power button to select that option.
Disconnect the charger and reconnect it within 10 seconds. A battery icon should appear on your screen.
Once the battery icon appears on the screen, allow your tablet to charge for at least 1 hour before turning it back on.
returned it

I got a new one thanks for all your help
I just had a red blinking light and no charge indicator situation, as well. Nothing seemed to work: plugged it in for 20 minutes, unplugged it for 20 minutes, plugged it back in...and after another hour on the charger I finally noticed the blinking red light had gone away, and hitting power brought up the charging indicator as normal. Booted right up and has been fine since.
My Nexus 5 just started doing this. I was in the middle of playing a game while my phone was on the charger (Brave Frontier) and suddenly the screen went dead and I had the red flashing light. I'm guessing I was using the juice faster than the charger could fill it so I killed it. I couldn't get the battery indicator to come back but as I was typing this the red light finally stopped flashing and the phone rebooted.
This happened to my N5 today. I was on a Hangouts video chat while plugged in from wall charger and I noticed the battery was actually draining rather than charging. So I figured hangouts was discharging the battery faster than the charging. Eventually it went to 0% and stayed that way for a while and suddenly the screen went off and the LED started blinking red. Followed the steps posted here, plugged in, left for a while and the blinking stops and phone boots up.
Never Hangout-ing with low charge ever! D:
My Nexus 5 won't power on or show a charge light... I had it on a wireless nexus charger last night today it is dead. I plugged it into the original charger no luck, I plugged it into my computer with a different cable no luck. Anything else I should try?
get anything if you hold down the power button for 10 seconds (plugged in and unplugged)? can you boot to the bootloader (for fastboot)? sounds like the battery is dead to me. my nexus 7 did that. had to use the original charger and plug it in for over an hour before it would give me any signs of life. perhaps your wireless charger failed you or the device was shifted off the coils.

@ OP and others having that problem.
I had the same with my N5 after flashing a custom ROM. N5 didn't wanted to boot.
But, when holdin both volume buttons and power button for more then 60 - 90 seconds, it powered my N5 on.
After powering it off - it still didn't wanted to boot, until I flashed over the factory image.
So - if you have problem with starting / booting the device, it might take all 3 buttons and holding them all for more then 60 seconds."
so holding down all three buttons for more than 60 seconds worked
I had a problem booting up my tablet because it stucked on Asus logo and after few hours he didn't even show Asus logo, only light up black screen whenever i push power or connect it to charger. Then i read from several places that i should disconnect 6pin battery connector for 5 minutes and connect it back, which i did. Now my tablet is completely DEAD, doesn't reacting on charger, power button, nothing... please help!

Don't forget to inetall drivers first
I couldnt turn it on . I got 1 or 2 blink led while pressing power for 10 seconds (this only if it is plugged), it doesnt do anything if unplugged. Tried 2 min hold power down, power and volume down, and several other options. Tried several charger, LG, Samsung, RPI2 (5v 2a), pc/notebook usb, and of course the original charger. Left it for charging all night, and several hours during the day. Nothing seems to work, battery still cold afetr so much time charging.
A few minutes ago, i removed the battery and plug it to a charger and it seems it wants to boot, see several blinks but the screen never turns on so the phone, after a few seconds it stop blinking.
What is going on???? Any help would be helpfull

Did you flash or modify something before this happened?
You might have to flash your stock firmware.

Just got my Nokia 3.1 TA-1063, unpacked and plugged to charger and USB cable that came with the phone. Screen is dead, phone just keeps vibrating every 5 seconds, no signs that it's charging or booting, just this vibrates. Tried volume up+ power on button for more than 10 secs, but that does nothing. It's bricked or something? Any solutions?
Best regards, Pirydion
