Please suggest what i do now.

You can try using some other charger or try resetting phone once, if that doesn't help, visit a service centre.
 
So, looks like it's official that our N4 won't get next major android update from Google. Android L dev preview isn't available for our phone, so from now on we must rely on developer @ xda for updates

Don't think so. If Google are willing to auto update $100 Micromax phones (Android One project), I'm sure they won't abandon their last flagship so easily. The Galaxy Nexus was pretty badly outdated when KitKat came out but the Nexus 4 is still a very capable device.

its not about device capability .. galaxy nexus can easily run Kitkat smoothly .. its about if the chipset company is going to release drivers and support for the chip or not..

nexus 4 is now 2 year old device ( android L is scheduled to come later this year.. this is just for beta testers ) .. galaxy nexus was also 2 years old at the time of kitkat

they count 18 months of support , so its out of the support cycle

i don't think qualcomm will support that chipset now

They follow 18 Months Update policy. If the device isn't 18 months old, it'll get the update whatsoever!
And yeah, N4 shouldn't get Offical L acc to that policy
 
Remaining S4 Pro chipset phones in market are Xperia Z, ZR & LG Optimus G..... but wait N7 2013 also has same chipset, i guess, so Qualcomm should release drivers

just checked Nexus 2013 has a snapdragon 600 though it is advertised as s4 pro

Nexus 4 has Krait 200 Cores Vs nexus 2013 has Krait 300 cores

nexus 4 has DDR 2 ram vs nexus 2013 has DDR3

APQ8064 vs APQ8064–1AA

nexus 7 chip was released in march 2013 whereas nexus 4 dates back to october 2012

its still a dicey situation but i see very slim chances of nexus 4 getting it updated

Why the hell was it advertised as S4 Pro if it was S600.... Kamaal hai
