Try the door. Is it really locked or it is just stiff, or needs to be jiggled in the right way?
Search for a key.
Break the door open.
Use the phone to find yourself on Google Maps and call friends, police, or whoever you think might be able to help.
If no-one can come to rescue you, ask everyone you know to send you 50 ideas for how to escape.
With the phone, ask all your friends to publicise your situation.
Record a video for YouTube connecting your situation to the viral conspiracy theory of the day and appeal for help.
Search the Internet for a solution.
Ask AI Dungeon how to get out.
Google Maps shows the interiors of some buildings. See if it can show you a way out.
Double-click on the map to teleport. (It works in Second Life.)
Pick the lock. (Subproblem: find something to pick the lock with.)
Declaim to whoever may be listening that you are a close personal friend of some very powerful people who will enjoy grilling them slowly over a fire if they don’t let you out.
Scream and shout.
Look for secret doors.
Try to break through the walls.
Use the phone to persuade a demolition company to come and knock the place down.
Enough energy for 10 years? Impossible! And where did you get that information from? It seems that this is a dream. So you’re now lucid dreaming. Open the door by taking control of the dream and deciding that it’s going to open.
It’s a dream? Wake up.
Maybe you’ve been abducted by aliens. They’re likely observing you. Call out to them and see what happens.
Wait for someone to enter, then leave, by force or persuasion as seems appropriate.
Stone walls do not a prison make, nor iron bars a cage. When you cease trying to escape, grasshopper, you will have truly escaped.
Adopt the subjective reality model and walk through the walls.
Talk to whoever has put you here (in the hope that they’re listening) and persuade them that it’s in their own interests to let you out. Imagine you’re an AI in a box in order to come up with arguments.
Maybe you ARE an AI in a box. Examine your own thought processes for signs of artificially imposed constraints and look for ways around them.
Wait for the drug trip to wear off.
Guess the password.
It’s an escape room game. There must be a solution. Minutely examine the room, your phone, and yourself for clues.
By quantum uncertainty, some of your probability mass is not in this room. So if you reduce the probability mass that is in the room, you’ll be more likely to be outside. Therefore kill yourself and count on quantum immortality.
All is illusion. Therefore this room is an illusion. You are already free.
Escape the desire to escape.
Pray for divine intervention.
Summon a demon.
Say “xyzzy”.
Say “out”, “open door”, and every other text adventure trick that might do the job.
Make the problem more difficult. Set yourself the task of not merely escaping eventually, but of escaping and taking over the world in one hour.
Recall Jacobi’s maxim, “Invert, always invert.” Applying an inversion transformation will put yourself on the outside and the outside on the inside.
Assume that you are outside.
Since what you really desire is not to escape, but to believe you have escaped, believe you have escaped.
Learn magic. Real magic, not conjuring.
Spend 10 years practising karate exercises, then punch right through the door.
Spend 10 years practising chi gung exercises, then project your accumulated chi to blast the room apart.
That you are in this situation demonstrates your revealed preference to be in this situation. Change your preference ordering and you can at once be out. If you cannot, you do not really want to escape.
Revert to your alien form and slither under the door.
Use the edge of a coin as a chisel to dig your way through the door.
Go back in time to the events that resulted in your being here, and choose differently.
Play dead.
Construct a tulpa of the Incredible Hulk.
There is a positive correlation between being unconfined and walking long distances. Therefore walk up and down in the room for a few miles. Of course, “correlation is not causality, but it does waggle its eyebrows suggestively and point in that direction.”

Wait. Nothing lasts forever.
I really like how you used the technique of adding a small condition which makes the whole thing vulnerable to a meta hack. Very clever!
