Yes and Yes to both.
Encryption enabled?
The disclaimer for safestrap states not to install if encryption is enabled. How do I tell that?

Settings> storage...it should have an option to encrypt storage. If it says "Encrypt storage", don't. I think it's only enabled if you go there and do it. Otherwise you're good to go.

How long did it take you for the first boot with wicked? The developers posted that it would take a while but just wanted to check with someone who did this. Mines been at the splash screen that sas wicked sensations for close to an hour.

Wicked, MOAR, Clean ROM 8, scrosler's stock rooted knoxless ROM, samstock, old & slow's stock root deodex. Although the OP of scrosler's stock rooted knoxless ROM indicates it (or he) does not support safestrap.
When creating a ROM slot, how much space should you allow. I have 16gb on board and a 32 gb SD card?

I usually just add space to the data partition of the ROM slot. Cache defaults at 300mb, system is unchangeable at 1500mb, and data defaults at 2500mb and i usually bump it up to 3000mb just to make sure i have enough space for app data.
Thanks guys!

If I partition my sd card using the tool from ccm, will that wipe my sd card or just resize seperate ext and swap partitons and then format? I tied just flashing the kernel and it wouldn't go past the samsung screen so I'm guessng the partitioning is my problem.

Lol don't be ...if the kernel doesn't work for you, you can just flash another kernel and be back to normal. If a kernel doesn't work, it doesn't require odin to fix it... you just need to flash another kernel
I'm running at 1.3 and had no issues howeve I know there are some picky phones that just don't like it...try running 1.2 see if u still get reboots....I couldonly hope for a "unicorn" phone that could handle everthing lol

NOTE: THIS ROM IS FULLY OPTIMIZED and also includes the latest GAPPS.

Quick question when I partition my SD card through clockwork mod recovery it doesn't give me the option of choosing ext 4 or 3 it ask for the ext size and swap after I choose those two it starts partition, takes like 2-3 mins then says done. My question is shouldn't it give me the option to choose with ext I want???

You don't need another recovery to partition your sd card. There are plenty of tools for your PC that you can use to create an sd ext.

RPM is really the only partition that we can pull and fllash like that. There are several other partitons that are hidden. Don't even see them when you Odin. There are partitions inside of the main partitions like the ones where IEMI are stored.

I have no clue. Depends what they change. And nobody knows what is tied to what. I always update all the firmware when OS changes or there is a major change such as adding Global. A 400 MB update there is more than just a rom upgrade.

Droidstyle seems to think using the full wipe version fixes some of the the problems. I have noticed a drop in the media scan after flashing the full wipe myself.
So it is a gt-p5113 wifi only model running 4.1.1 from samsung. All of the sudden it is closing out of apps while they are being used any idea whats causing this. She did not do a system update or anything of that nature a lookout scan shows its good. I'm at a loss on this. Any help would be great.
