If you have the 10 seconds, you could use the operating system’s hard reboot function, which at least on Android is pressing and holding power and volume up for 10 seconds. But I don’t know what it is on the iPhone.
Power and volume up for new phones, and then power and home for older ones with Touch ID.
Also, so you know, if you press power 5 times it will ask if you want an emergency call, say no, but after you do it your PIN is required to unlock. No biometrics work at that point. So, no one can force you to touch or look at it. I don’t know if it puts the phone in that “mode” or not, but it’s a handy trick.
Yeah, I knew that that was available, but I do not know whether it puts the phone in the before first use mode, like you mentioned, or just disables the biometrics, but leaves the device in after first use mode.
It also might not be taken to a police station. Who knows where the actual forensics labs are. No real need for them to be on-site or even labeled.
