Try to borrow one from you friends and test a couple of earphones, or visit your most convenient Apple Store or Authorized Service Provider. It could be a hardware failure to your lightning port, but we can't diagnose these issues remotely.

Have you tried to connect a different earphones model to your iP7+? (just to see if the cable adapter isn't broken).
Can you try to connect your old earphones to a different iPhone (borrowing it from your friends)?
I don't see any other way to test your equipments.

I do not have another iPhone. I plugged a pair of over the ear earphones and they work for the same 20 seconds before I get the prior quoted message. I tried a different adapter and the same thing happens.
'this accessory is not supported by this iPhone". appears on the screen after the earphones work perfectly for about 20 seconds.
Have you tested those earphones connecting them to a different iPhone (with lightning adapter)?
I have the issue if I used my iPad Air.
