This is twrp version 3.2.1-0 and has finally been ported to the LG Aristo 2!

To flash:
1. Make sure your bootloader is unlocked
2. Download recovery.img from below
3. Boot phone into fastboot mode using "adb reboot bootloader" without quotations
4. Flash using "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" without quotations
5. Once it is done, disconnect the phone and reboot into recovery
6. Wipe /data and /cache
7. Flash no verity zip from https://build.nethunter.com/android-tools/no-verity-opt-encrypt/ (Get latest version)
8. Flash magisk zip from https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445

Thanks to @brad2192 for flashing experimental builds for me!

Works great, was a fun night of figuring this out together glad it worked out! Everything is functioning properly!

Just remember when you first load into TWRP you will need to go to wipe > format data and type yes.

This will erase all data so be sure to backup all your personal files to your SD card using the phone before you format. Then proceed to use the above instructions!

I got it flashed successfully and can get to it but it's asking for a decrypt password. I never set one up, so I'm not sure what to do. I still tried to format but it gives an error about inability to mount.

Edit - even with the error, it still has me set up Android again but it still wants a decrypt password and I can't mount.

Its normal. look at the other threads for twrp they always say to format the data after a reboot. Maybe add it to your tutorial thingy.

Edit: Thanks a lot guys its a lot more fun with root and TWRP. (>^.^)>

Thank you for this! Once my sata cables come in the mail and I get my Windows copy up and running on my second hard drive I need to create an ISO .img from the KDZ file you gave me. Need to get my phone back to stock, and im thankful you guys got TWRP working on this great phone.

Heres a tutorial. Its made for the aristo 1 but im sure it should work with the aristo 2. Use the lg up program.here
Just make sure to use the kdz made for the aristo 2 that you already have.
Forgot you may need uppercut aswell. here sometimes it gives a error which uppercut fixes.

Has anyone tried any other cameras with this phone? I was thinking of trying to flash CameraNext or SnapDragon but I've never tried either on a stock rom, so I'm not sure whether I'd bootloop.

I don't have the phone so I can't test that. Mabe someone here with the phone can test?

I am trying to find good camera apps for this phone because the stock one is not that good. I will try those two that you have just posted.

I've tried finding other LG camera apps but none would work. Let me know how CameraNext works (if it does).

OpenCamera is giving me terrible quality.

Bacon Camera seems ok.

Google Camera is ok, but limited.

That's all I've tried. I know this camera should be capable of some good pictures.

Edit - I found an APK only install for CameraNextMod v10. This might be the best we can get with this camera unless the zip versions are compatible. Here's a link https://drive.google.com/file/d/1aLdiT1B2TcDFL0vfcmwYz6L7EdxqgFKj/view?usp=sharing

ah ok. Thanks for letting me know :)

So, I just went back into TWRP for the first time since and it's still asking for a password to decrypt. I don't want to wipe everything again. Any ideas? Nothing is mounted and I can't mount without the password.
