Do you have a SD memory card installed or is it just running with the default 8 gigs of memory?

No, the phone is running with the 8 gigs of memory by default , I'll put it a SD memory card after the flash process, but....the phone isnt work yet.
Try to flash another ROM on it... maybe the 2 you've tried were not appropriate for your phone.
Was this originally an AT&T phone?

I recently Flash Phenomenal 4.0 medium Kernel into my Galaxy S2(GT-I9100). How ever I'm experience random restarting and i do not know what is the problem causing it. The phone doesn't seen to be restarting when i'm not using it. It's only restart when i'm using it (seldom) At first i tried flashing Phenomenal 4.0 normal into it but it fail dude to unknown reason. However i'm able to flash Phenomenal 4.0 medium into it and able to boot up the phone. Below is the screenshot i taken from my phone status.

Phone restarted when i go Gallery
Hi,
Like the title says, i rooted my Nexus 7 last sunday, after owning the device since last november.
I was quite scared about messing up everything trying to root the device, but everything went fine thanks to the XDA forum and youtube , i found usefull info on both of these site.
I installed Paranoid Android on it , the 3.10 version and yesterday night i had a pop up saying that i had an update available for my rom ( 3.15 version) so i downloaded it and installed it without a problem.
Also i installed a kernel on it the Faux123 kernel , there was 3 version available for android 4.2.2 so i took the Ultimate edition max, as shown here on this threadhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1804374
I have to say that since i rooted my device and installed Paranoid Android on it my Nexus 7 is a lot faster.
But i dont know if its since i installed the kernel or what but the battery seems to get quite hot , something that never happended when i wasnt rooted.
I got the Faux tool on the play store to control the cpu , i had the governors on performance for 1 day, but the battery was getting too hot like that so i changed it to interactive mode.
I have the Faux tool set on boot, i dont know if its correct, maybe i would like some help about how to manage the cpu.
Also when i update my rom yesterday i backed up all my apps with Titanium but since i wipe the data cache and the dalvik cahe when updating the rom i lost my boot animation( a custom one that i got from here on xda) and i had to reinstall my kernel because it was gone.
Is there a sort of way to update a rom without loosing the kernel and/or other thing like my boot animation.
Thanks in advanced.

If you are overclocking the heat problem is normal, it happens with all cpus when they are pushed beyond their limits. As long as you don't stay at the max value for your kernel for an extended period of time you should be fine.
Also if you have twrp recovery you can auto flash zips using the goomanager app.

I forgot to mention that since I rooted my tablet it froze 2 times and reboot by itself.

After having a look at some of the specs of my phone I'm under the conclusion that it may be a clone, but either way its for the Chinese market and I have had lots of little problems with the phone, from youtube not working properly, to apps shutting down sometimes, and most frustrating is that Google Play Services is not working, so no Gmail app and most recently I wanted to use PushBullet and I could not.
So far I have succesfully rooted it using some oneclick root and have verified it by downloading a root checker. I am completely new with rooting and flashing phones and using the oneclick, it was the first time I had rooted a phone. I'm not sure where to go next for flashing the ROM. Anyone have any advice or tips on how to proceed? I have tried ODIN but it doesn't seem to recognize the phone at all.
Hi I did root the phone but after I restart the phone stuck at, only original binary files can be installed
I flash stock rom the phone works except bunch of problems start showing up

You need to use the latest.. I repeat the latest version of Odin and also the stock firmware for your region which has all the parts AP/BL/CP/CSC, flash it and your phone will work again and no you can't reset knox if it has been tripped.
