Nexus 4 wont turn back on from deep hybernation

[AC Question]

I've tried the steps people have listed on questions here and i get the green android but it only lasts on screen for 1-2 seconds so i have no chance of using volume to scroll through and power button to select reboot

Hold the power button down - the phone should reboot after 20-30 seconds. Then you can let go of the button.
