iOS 16.3 update, touchscreen not working, can’t open iPhone

Submitted by MarcusE1W t3_10k5egj in iphone

Hi.

I have updated my iPhone to 16.3 and now can’t open it. All swipe gestures to start to key in the passcode are ignored. If I press the power button longer I do get the screen to turn off the iPhone, but again, cannot swipe to actually do it.

Has anyone experienced something similar and has an idea how to solve this ?

I have tried a hard restart, unfortunately no luck. The touchscreen is still unresponsive

you're holding volume up and power together then. you need to do it as I said volume up once, release. Volume down, release. Power button hold until you see apple logo. don't press them together but one by one

Lol in ever updating your phone. Apple is known for bricking random devices
