If I flash gsi system img using just cmd it shows like the first picture below that Invalid sparse file format at header magi....after done flashing... it bootloops .then I go totwrp and there I see that system is empty (even after mounting) 
Now seccondly If I flash the same gsi by platform tools using cmd it successfully flashes and phone boots up ...but after that twrp cant resize system or mount it but i can use the phone about 10 or 15 minutes ..after that it crashes maybe due to low system partition memory available (32MB available says twrp in /ststem) ....
one more fact is my original stock system.img is about 3.5GB ....gsi is about 2.4GB

these are happening only while flashing android 12 gsi (pixel exp.arm64.ab), crdroid android 12  and others arent even booting
