Ensure you have downloaded the correct RAMdisk data within UnlockTool. Go to the Apple tab, click Download , and select the specific package for iPhone 7 (iOS 15.x or the version you are running).

First, let’s decode the terminology. The iPhone 7 (2n61ap) refers to the global variant of the iPhone 7 (not the iPhone 7 Plus). In UnlockTool, a "loader" is a specific boot or pre-loader file that bridges the software interface to the device's DFU (Device Firmware Update) or PWNED DFU mode.
: Loader errors are frequently caused by data transmission failures. Use an original Apple Lightning cable or a high-quality MFi-certified one. Ensure no other phone management software is running
| Feature | Low Quality Loader | High Quality Top Loader | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | | Random Telegram/Blog | Official IPSW or Trusted Forum | | iPhone 7 (2n61ap) Detection | Unstable (Error 4013) | Instant & Stable | | Baseband Retention | Often corrupts baseband | Preserves baseband (BB) | | Success Rate | < 30% | > 98% | | Error Message | "loader not found" or "checksum fail" | No errors, proceeds to Flash mode |
