Why won't my phone turn on?

[AC Question]

My phone won't turn on

When powering on my nexus 4 phone the four small coloured round balls just keep going around and around it doesn't connect to the network it just keeps doing that.
As I cannot get the battery out of the back of the phone I do not know what to do. Does this mean my phone has died I have had it since June 2013.
