iPhone SE will freeze on last digit of passcode after powering up from a shutdown

My iPhone SE will freeze on the 4th digit of my passcode, if I'm booting it up from a shut down, restart, or software update. It will freeze with the last number I put in still highlighted. If I wait, the phone restarts on its own but the problem persists. If I force a reset, it still doesn't work. The only way I can get it to work now is if I wait 30 minutes with the phone plugged in, but I'm not sure how long that solution will last. I just updated my phone. Why is this happening? I don't want to restore my phone.

iPhone SE, iOS 13

Hello aulren,


Welcome to the Apple Support Communities. I understand that the iPhone will not respond after inputing the passcode. I'll do what I can to help.


Good job on all the steps that you have taken. Please follow the steps listed under the section "If your device turns on but gets stuck during start up" in this article: If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch won't turn on or is frozen


Take care.
