New iPhone 16 pro is locked (read post)

Got a new iPhone 16 pro and I am trying to transfer my old iPhone 14's data. Started the data transfer and my new iPhone 16 pro was forced into a software update ( i had chosen to update later but was then forced). The update said it was installed then I was just stuck waiting for some time maybe 15 mins and nothing on the screen was changing just both of my phones pending. Did the silver bullet reset trick (vup then release vdown then release hold power until the apple appears) and now my new iPhone 16 pro is locked and I can't swipe up to unlock and type in my password.

When I try the 'silver bullet' reset method I can't swipe the shut off option, and when I get through to the apple the problem with the swiping to unlock persists.

very stressful any help is appreciated
