My iphone XS is not force restarting. I also can’t exit my messages app, play music, charge my phone and my battery is frozen. I have looked up multiple things, all tell me to force restart, but it won’t. It get the vibration when force restart, but nothing on the screen.
iPhone XS, 16
AFAIK, there is no vibration on a forced restart.
Temporarily remove any protective case, as the first two button-presses must be very quick and a case can slow those down, and the third button press is pressed and held for ten or fifteen seconds—not releasing until after you see the Apple logo. Not releasing for the power-down sliders or anything else shown, wait for the Apple logo before releasing.
