Titanium Backup Crashes If You Try To Restore

So over the weekend, I chose to root my phone and get the newest 10u update (model h918) and everything seemed to work fine and everything works well.

However, that changed when I transferred my titanium backup files to my v20 from my note 3 and tried to restore a few games. The thing is that I can backup apps, but can't restore them at all. It crashes in response to it. I've checked google play store reviews and others are experiencing this on the model number, so I hope that there can be a fix to this.

Here's what I did:
Dragged and copied all the backup files from my note 3 to my computer
Created a com.kermidas.TitaniumBackup folder into my sd card.
Dragged and copied all the backup files from my computer to v20
Tried to restore from files, crashes every time.
Tested to see if backing up works, indeed it does.
Restarted my phone and tried again, fails.
Uninstalled and reinstalled
Same thing happens again.

If there's something wrong I hope I get to fix it, otherwise oh well, guess I have to get used to it.
Looking forward for a fix, so please give me some suggestions.
Thanks

what did you use to root the lg phone? which su mgr?
did you change the name space manager or whatever titanium backup errors on startup?

I used lafsploit with Magisk 17.1. I did get a "this su may not be compatible with titanium backup, if not, try using SuperSU" obviously we know what happened to that however...

And you have magisk manager 5.9 or 6 installed? Does magisk have the same namespace settings as supersu? Did you try and install titanium backup from googleplaystore? You are trying non-system apps?

Magisk Manager version is 6.0.0, I did install Titanium Backup through play store and I'm only restoring non system apps. My namespace settings are Inherited Namespace, not sure what SuperSU has.

Seems a general issue which started since August security patch update.

Tried on two different devices (oneplus one and Mix 2S), both with Android P with August/September security patch and there is no way to avoid this FCs after the first one, at the best you can make it start on the first launch and restore only data, but if it crashes then for some reason it doesn't matter what you do, it will always crash after this.

I have the May Security Patch, I have the system version 10u so I haven't updated to Oreo as of yet

I have the same problem on another device. I got a rom on which titanium worked before but now after a clean install not. I only changed the gapps pack. so I think and has something to do with different or newer packs.

Edit: fixes it by installing titanium 8.1.0 instead of newest build. But I needed to clean install rom because it kept crashing from the previous install

I did a clean install of 10u when I unlocked my phone, but I found out that I can only restore data only, which I'm all good for, at least if anything it's livable, but still looking for fixes.

I had problems with some apps (usually system apps) but most of what i needed like google playstore apps restored fine. Apps that need accounts was always 50/50. I'm still on 10u too. There is a warning on titanium startup about if you have problems try turning off mount namespace separation. May be worth a try.

Also,
I'm running supersu on my v20.
