iphone 15 pro IOS 17.4 update touch screen completely unresponsive

My iphone 15 Pro touch screen completely stopped working after the IOS 17.4 update. The method below does not work:

"tap the volume up once

tap the volume down once

hold the power button until you see the apple logo (it will take about 40 seconds so be patient)",


I cannot restart/turn off the iphone at all. I need this to open my work laptop tomorrow, how can I make it work soon?

Button sequence did not work for me. I ran update again through Macbook, and that resolved the issue. However, when I first plugged my phone into Macbook, it would not charge. When I plugged it again after 2nd or 3rd try, it was charging. While redoing update, I was on with Apple support chat. They indicated that it may take 3-4 tries updating via Macbook before issue would be resolved. Fortunately, it only took me once. Thanks, once again, Apple, for wasting so much of my time.
