I have a Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 for a little over a week and just got this issue.
I don't know why over the night the phone turned off an when i woke up and tried turning it on it just wouldn't boot. When i connected it to the charger it it would only show a blinking red light in the notifications led when i tried to turn it on. Is this a common problem? Is there any solution? Please help. Thanks in advance

Probably, the phone fully drained its battery power. (Cuz of red notif led).

Plug your phone and let it charge. Check the LED if changed color to yellow

Can i ask if fastboot works (pressing power+vol down) and try to reset it. And boot it again.

Reference:

Try other methods too on that link.

Dont forget to plug your phone, charge it about 3 to 5 minutes.

It begins turning on if i press long enough, but instantly shuts down because no battery (i have it connected to the charger). When i turn it on on fastboot mode it just gets stuck there with that rabit fixing an android robot image and doesn't do anything else...

Very sorry! I meant Recovery mode (hold the volume up & power button) then reformat it. Do it while charging.

On recovery mode it does the same it does on normal boot, just starts de red flashing led if it is connected to the charger...
I guess i'l have to send it back to China to warranty, another month without phone...
Thanks a lot for all the help tho!!
