Presenting another useless tethered downgrade tutorial. I'm pretty sure this method has already been detailed before, but I'm sharing it again, I guess. This tutorial is primarily for Beta Firmwares. If you're not attempting to install beta firmware, I advise you use n1ghtshade.

A7 ramdisk support for SliverM1
I found and tested this tool, which is an updated version of pwneddfu that supports A7 devices. I also tested this on 12.1 and 12.2 MacBook Pro 16 inch 2021 and iPhone 5s and it worked. I believe it also allows unsigned images on A7 devices. If you want, I can also upload a compiled version of that binary to make things easier.
