Nexus 5 won't boot when unconnected, stuck in when connected

Hey everyone

I've run into a problem with my Nexus 5. It won't boot when it's not connected to power, and when it is connected to power it's stuck in a bootloop at the black Google splash screen.

I've tried to boot into system recovery to wipe cache or reset but evertime I do it reboots itself a second after entering the recovery menu.

As I said it won't turn on when there's no power connected, no matter how long I'm holding down the power button.

Help me AndroidCentral forum, you're my only hope.

Might it be that your battery's done?

Maybe, but it worked fine yesterday. If that is the case it must have happened when it was charging over night.

This happened to my galaxy s3. Sorry but your phone is hard bricked, the only way to fix it is to look on eBay for people who have the necessary tools and hardware, or search on Amazon.com for a un bricking tool.
