ok, so this is my first time flashing, i used odin to flash the kernel dr. honk posted here [Kernel][GB] Stock Kernel + CWM + Voodoo EXT4 Lagfix, it flashed fine, but when it rebooted it says, everytime it tries to startup "convert data partition, not enough space on sd card, convert system partition, not enough space on sd card"

am i screwed? is my phone bricked? is there anything i can do to recover it or to fix the problem so it can continue loading the kernel?

Go back to cmw go to advanced and create a new partition with 1028 for space. Restart phone and see if linda converts it. If she said not enough space do the same thing but with a 2048 size partition

No offense, why would you every tell anyone who has no idea, to reparation their sd.It wipes data.

Answer to question

If your phone boots up saying "GALAXY S 4G" you aren't bricked. Also, If you wait long enough, the phone would turn on. Anyway, turn your phone off by pulling out the battery. First, press volume up and down together. Hold it. Then hit the power button for 4 seconds. Release the power button. After some time, you will be in recovery mode. (red with writing). Using the volume up and down buttons, navigate to the section that says voodoo lag fix. Press power button to click. Then disable voodoo lag fix by clicking disable and disable system lag fix by clicking disable. Now navigate to the "go back" button, and go back. click reboot system and it will work.

Also, Don't flash the kernel unless you are running KH2, audiophile FTW or valhalla, If you don't know how to flash these, don't flash kernels.

It didn't wipe my data either. It may wipe it if you don't have space for the partition. OP, pm me if you are still stuck

im also having a same problem on T959V. Linda says "not enough space on partition, convert system partition time estimate 2 minutes." Please let me know if you have found any fix for this.

Thanks.

connect your sd card onto your computer and move every single file onto there. Delete all the files on the sd card, then put the sd card back into your phone, boot the phone up and let it do its thing. After your phone is fully loaded, you can move all the files back to your sd card.

If you don't have an sd card... Well... Get one.
