Been struggling for a while with this one

Trying to fastboot flash to any partition gives the error:

Code:

FAILED (remote: 'sparse image size span overflow.')

Tried specifying size with -S, flashing stock image, erasing the partition and flashing (which gave the same error, making me unable to write to the empty partition, even with the stock image. Did this with boot (attempted magisk root) and had to reflash to stock using sp flash tool, which is why I'm sure of the stock images being fully functional), as well as trying two versions of the android platform tools (from the arch repos, as well as developer.android.com, some threads mentioned an outdated version of fastboot being the culprit, though that didn't seem to be the case)

Originally I thought it was just the boot partition, but trying to flash twrp (built using the mtk auto twrp porter) gave the same error.

when you send the flash command, is the device in fastboot mode or fastbootd?

How did you manage to flash the stock ROM? Did you get the auth file?
