Leaving it alone for an hour, should enable restarting/signing in again
with the passcode. Another failure then, means another hour out in the
cold, and so on, until the sign-in passcode is done right. .
If the phone is on, or frozen, then VoiceOver should speak when the
phone is ready for a new sign-in attempt (after an hour or whatever
time-out is set at the moment.)
I think a sighted person can see how many minutes are left on the screen
as the clock is counting down to re-sign-in. .

I'd had a similar problem to this on my first phone, and it required a
sign in before it would do anything. This could be your problem, as a
guess. If you have tried to sign in more then 3 times consistently,
it won't do anything. Sit it down and leave it for a day or so, then
come back and sign into it. Hopefully, this may help.

Hi all! I cannot get control of my iPhone 13 in any way whatever.
Asking Siri does not work, the touch screen does not respond, I
cannot turn off the phone since "tapping" does not avail any response
whatever, all that works is volume up/down, right hand button which
goes in and out of "lock screen" mode, holding down the down button
after the tap of the right hand button prompts for "tap for power
off," but .. . or, if I hold down the down button it does go into SOS
mode or if I hold it should then call emergency services.
I've had an iPhone since 2013 so am not a newby,
any ideas? Siri will not respond!
All I will do now is wait for the battery to force recharge when it
runs out.
any other ideas? Has anyone had any situation like this where the
touch screen simply will not respond?
