[General Questions and Answers] Confxsed:
Hey guys! How ya doing?

Im pretty straightforward so I'll make this fast.(like myself in bed with a 10/10)

I need some help on my LG Aristo (T-Mobile). :eek:

The problem is I rooted it via fastboot with twrp and everything went great for the first few days until it started to flash gray and wanted to become an alien.

I wasn't worrying cause im a thug.

So I attempted a re-flash & I erased the recovery then re-flashed it.

Until the blinky gray alien screen started happening again.

For a few days I tried everything and the gray flashing screen wouldn't go away.

So I did the following fastboot commands and it went away.

Fastboot erase cache

Fastboot erase userdata

Fastboot erase system

Fastboot erase recovery

Satisfied that the gray flashing finally went away I reflashed it with the twrp recovery.

Only this time when I booted into twrp to install No-verity and SU all I seen was

Failed to mount :/system

Failed to mount :/userdata

Failed to mount :/recovery

And the phone did a reboot and was acting funny.

I then re-flashed the boot, recovery and the modem imgs that I extracted from the KDZ myself. And it actually booted but stays stuck at the LG Logo.

I couldn't flash the system img as I kept getting a "max target size download of 190840823 bytes" error.

I looked into it and a friend mentioned to forget it and to just flash the KDZ File with a LG flash tool.

I tried this only every flash tool I used did not pick up my device model. (yes I had all correct LG Drivers installed)

Aftering searching online I also tried to replace the fastboot exe with mfastboot. But it did not work as I keep getting the same error but it said target -max-download size of: 250mb and my system.img is about 2GB+..

Also, the mfastboot was made for moto devices (I found a XDA thread that linked it) and not lg. But it didn't work anyway.

I really think everything will be solved once I flash my system img but I keep getting errors about the size limit. (If you know of a way to fix this let me know.)

:good:I've already tried the following so please don't bring them up:

:good:

*Erasing everything via fastboot ( doesn't do anything):(

*Putting phone into DL mode to flash KDZ and TOT file with phone dll via LG flash tools.(2014 and 2016) ( kept getting a (s) failed to load error):(

*Re-flashed stock imgs (done it all but system img. I don't know why It keeps giving errors, yes I put it in android sdk platform tools folder):(

* Put phone in dl mode and use LGUP/uppercut method. ( Kept getting "No handsets connected" errors". Phone wasn't recognized no matter what drivers I used.):(

*Try different ports on pc and latest drivers. ( Yeah, I spent a week searching for all drivers and my pc isnt a virgin anymore as I stuck in the usb in all her holes):(

*Relentlessly search XDA and other forums for solutions to no prevail. (This phone is irrelevant and no one cares about it)

:good:

What I haven't tried:

:good:

*Breaking the mother****er and just buying a s5.:D

Greatly appreciate any help and also can XDA add the LG Aristo to the "my devices"? I had to pick a s8 so I didn't look broke.:silly:

I didn't seen an LG Aristo and There is NO forums for this problem or even for this phone in that matter.
