You can't downgrade from iOS 15.7.8 once updated. And your phone is too old and underpowered to be updated to the next generation iOS 16 software.


Try a simple Forced Restart (something recommended after iOS updates):


Force restart iPhone 7

Press and hold both the volume down button and the Sleep/Wake button at the same time. When the Apple logo appears, release both buttons.
