I'm not quite following what you're trying to achieve.
When you flash a rom, the kernel is included. You don't have to flash the kernel separately unless you want a custom kernel.
Following the link above (the lmgtfy, I didn't know what CM7-GX4 was), it seems that you're looking for the kernel from a rom that's quite old. Are you wanting to flash that kernel with a different rom?
Maybe sleep deprivation is making me silly and dumb, but I just don't get it.

And in your attempt to be an ungrateful individual who requires that everything be handed to him....I've gone ahead and completed the difficult task of running another Google search for you.
I've also gone ahead and thrown in a brief "How-to" so that you know exactly what you are supposed to do with the information I gave you, since you apparently failed to grasp the fairly simple concept on your own.
1. Use the link from my first response to download the CM7-gx4 ROM.
2. Use the second link to learn how to extract the kernel from the CM7-gx4 ROM that you downloaded from step #1. (I assumed you would've been able to figure this part out on your own)
3. Take newly extracted CM7-gx4 kernel and flash it to your phone.
4. Go back to the stickies in this forum and read the thread about ROMs/kernels and then facepalm yourself for not realizing that the kernel is already packaged within the ROM and doing the above steps for no reason.
5. Press the thank you button at the bottom of this post.
if u actually took the time out and actually read that post u should understand that the developer posted a link for a kernel... i dont expect things to b handed to me but i expect people to actually know what im talkin about to actually help me with what i want without being sarcastic... so now go and think about what u've done

If you "expect people to actually know what you're talking about ", then you should type more clearly and give more information.
You said you were looking for a kernel for a rom and that you wanted to flash the rom soon. Then you said you were running Decks. Then you said (and I'm translating into proper spelling and grammar) "If you actually took the time to read that post, you'd understand that the developer posted a link for a kernel."
I'm still lost as to what you're trying to achieve, but I don't think it's even relevant because I think you moved on to something else.
If I understood what you were trying to do, I would try to help you. Maybe I'm just missing something obvious.

First of all I would like to than all the amazing devs in this community because without them we wouldn't have all this fun.
I'm not taking credit for anything but putting this together.
The idea was to make transition from GB (or any other ICS build) to FC06 as easy as possible.
This rom is based on Calkulin's stock rooted deodexed FC06 and he deserves all credit for it.
The status bar icons and some other colors and looks are from Tiffan84 and she should be credited for that.
Kernel comes from Team Rogue and credit and our thanks goes to them.
Calculin's format all script is incorporated in updater script as well.
It's very hard to keep up with all this leaks and updates but I decided to give it a shot with FC06.
I tried to combine everything in one place and added some build.prop tweaks for battery life, smoothness and speed.
Running this rom for about a day and so far so good.
I'm not posting any screenies since it's pretty much stock look.
Build prop has been tweaked for
*deeper sleep for battery save.
*net.tcp's for faster 3G
*proximity sensors for less black screen after call
*telephony for faster call
*tweaks for overall responsiveness
and some more.
So instead of flashing FC06 in 3-4 steps this will flash it in one.
I have tested it and flashed over EL27, FE21, and FC05.
Just place rom into root of your sd card and flash in recovery.
Script will:
1. Format all (data, cache, boot, system).
2. Flash Rom.
3. Flash Kernel.
Just reboot and enjoy.
Here is the link for brave ones (since you don't know me and my previous work):
http://dev-host.org/SQz
You would need to flash modem separately. I have tried to incorporate that into script as well but it didn't work. If some one can give me a hand with that that would be great but for now you can download modem zip file from here:
http://www.buildarom.com/E4GT/Modems/E4GT_Modem_FC05.zip thanks to Calkulin as well.
Flash modem after you flash rom and you should be good.
All known bugs are still present and I didn't discover any new ones.
Any feed back and/or bug report is greatly appreciated.
Edit: If you would like to go back to your previos build/settings you can restore Nand back up.
It works for any back up made using CWM recovery. Has been tested by me. For more info read post #28 on page 3 of this thread.
thanx op, nice to see another option.

Hope this will be handy for those who is confused with all the steps they gotta take to flash ICS over GB.
I made something similar for transition from 2.1 to 2.2 on samsung moment and it was very popular and had a lot of downloads.
So I thought this might be useful here as well.

At this moment there not many known bugs.
GPS is gettings stack sometimes but reboot takes care of it.
Mail exchange is hit and miss.
Some people having camera issues but it's not common.
That's pretty much it for now on FC06 build.

Sprint TV works here.
It just updates on first start and it's working fine after that.
Just want to say your concept is definitely needed up in the forum and I am surprised I have not seen more posts up in your thread but I think do to the current amount of individuals unfortunately bricking their phones many may be worried.
May I suggest to those of you who do use this and have successfully used this method, to kindly list what GB/ICS rom/recovery you were coming from when using this.
It will help ease the fear of others in here...

Working:About everything
Broken:Camera works for some people.
Tweaks:What comes with flexreaper, nothing special added in this version. Next version will have build.prop tweaks and hopefully working camera.
If anyone wants to help with development of roms for the iconia a100 just PM me.
Yesterday, I downloaded both Tabooyay and flexreaper from posts found in the Rom Thread in the General section.
Just curious if the two you have posted here in Development are the same or if you have made modifications within the last 24 hours?
I haven't flashed either yet so I'm just curious. Perhaps you could give each a version number or some other identifier.
The MD5's I get are:
Taboonay_A100.zip >> d16775ad627af91e43045d5a686a976a
Flexreaper_A100.zip >> 6b463663fc008ac2cb7a802c960e195b
MD5's are your friend. First thing to tell people to check if they experience issues.

I will try to push a full compatible build for the a100 based on the a100 ICS leak.
Give me some time and I need testers as I don't have a a100.

The stock boot.img is usable. You may just need to re-root the rom when you flash it.
Will upload first release today
EDIT
To the OP , credit to the original rom builder would be great.
I could care less you changing build.prop , but I do care not being recognized.
It takes many hours to build a good custom rom and to mod.

does anyone know if their is going to be an IceCreamSandwich update for the dinc2 non rooted just a regular ol update. also do you know when if so.
I don't mean to be rude, but I actually can't understand what you wrote. :/
is their going to be and ics (ice cream sandwich) update for the droid incredible 2 without having to root and flash device.
Yes there will be an update from Verizon/Htc to Ics/Sense 3.6 (I assume it will be 3.6) sometime in the future. No root required. When, hopefully before the new year.
This ^^
Thanks for clarifying.
alright thanks but until then what would you recommend for the most stable ics rom?
AOKP build 32 with my Cam/Camcorder patch (within the last couple pages in general), aero's v9 kernel (rootzwiki cm9 unofficial thread), AGPS patch (somewhere in our dev section) and don't forget to flash the 3/17 gapps!

Hey all, long time lurk, first actual post here though. I used to jump rom to rom back when I had the original Droid on VZW, but that was so long ago, at least in terms of Android Development anyhow. So ffwd to today, I've had my E4GT now for perhaps 2 months, and I've already rooted it, flashed a Team Rouge Recovery to it (cause it was the latest I think), and am on a stock GB EL29 Rom, and I think an EL26 Kernel.
Now, I know that things have complicated so much more since the last time I was savy doing all this, so I'm vague and still learning about all the different things that can be switched in and out, here and there. But I've been too caught up with all of the recent ICS issues that were presented with the leaks and the actual release. I've since found a rom that I'm comfortable with, AOKP 7-13 , but I'm not trying to mess anything up despite having done nothing but read for the past month and a half about what to do and not to do. One thing I am absolutely sure about is that I came into this scene at a horrible time lol, things have been changing as I read them!!
Now! With this rom, is it completely nessasary to use this specific recovery, CWM5? And, is this the recovery in question? If not, please point me in the correct direction.
And "the normal route" that is mentioned in the first information post in that AOKP thread, would that be the flashing of an ICS rom from a GB rom to prevent the emmc problem that was happening, even though such this rom has that feature removed (at least if I read it correctly)
I'm not stupid nor am I completely horrible at following directions, but after feeling like getting the run around just by attempting to piece together information from different sources, it would really just put my mind at ease, and stop the headaches lol, if someone whom this wasn't so...new to could provide me an outline to follow, or at least do this, don't do that pointers.
I know this is long, and thanks for reading. I'm just hoping to get back into the scene, I hate being anxious and not know, <-- ie. my current state

Okay, first of all, AOKP already comes with a recovery (TWRP). However, if you would rather use clockworkmod then you can use this: http://tinyurl.com/7ysnylg Also, in any case where you want to flash a different ICS ROM, I suggest you use el26 CWM.
I'm aware of the TWRP that is included with the AOKP rom (listen to me, slinging around slang like a pro, lol) I only felt I needed to use CWM5 because it specified it in the instal instructions for the rom.
I would assume that I would need the CWM just for switching ICS's in the future, if that does turn out to be what I'll be doing, seeing as how ICS looks like it'll be nothing but improvements from here on oot.

Ooooh I get you! yes its best and suggested to flash any new ics rom from el29 stockrooted
Odin el29 stock rooted
Then flash el26 cwm kernel
Reboot to recovery then flash the ics rom
If your already on an ics rom MY method is to always Odin el29 stockrooted

Actually, I'm already halfway through that. I am at el29, stock rooted. And I have the el26 kernel. I just need the CWM recovery, then the actual piece de resistance, the rom. Right Krazy?

I was actually in a similar situation as you. I came from flashing on the HTC Hero(which is running AOKP at the moment, and I'm soon going to flash the new Jellybean rom that was just released for it), and that phone is completely different from the E4GT. Although i didn't start flashing from GB, I started on ICS.
I actually went from FF18 Stock Rooted to AOKP milestone 6 Friday the 13th using Agat's recovery from source, and it's a safe recovery, without problems. I am now loving AOKP

The yellow triangle is Samsung way of telling the techs an unofficial kernel was flashed to the phone. People use a jig or if your on ICS you can use triangle away to reset the binary counter.

Thanks. I am looking to flash for the first time on this phone also, just got it a week ago. I came from the Vibrant which was so much more simple. Another question if you don't mind. I am on the now running stock OTA ICS. Do I just need to Odin a safe kernel then flash which ever ROM I choose or are the ICS kernels that are built from source now safe to flash from?
The kernels built from the source are safe. Agats kernel with recovery. You can flash that kernel being on stock FF18 and flash from there.
Edit: the agats kernel I have is for TW roms. So just do some research on what kernels you can use. (Cm9 and AOKP use different kernels.)

I have done a ton reading, just stuck in the old ways of my old phone and simplicity of flashing on it. It was all a little confusing because even some of the updated ROM threads still say flash back to EL26 first, which is also a TW kernel isn't it? But then I read in another place it is safe to use Agats kernel built from source and so on. I was a little shocked at considerably less custom ROM options on this phone compared to the Vibrant. Granted the Vibrant has been around longer, but there were so many more options at the start which kind of leads me to think it is just that much more work to do that on this phone. By no means is this a negative remark toward any developer, just sort of expected a lot more because it is a nice phone. I was looking to flash the Platinum version of this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1712362 since I love the color red. But, thanks for help. I really appreciate it when someone actually gives an answer to a question instead of bash people new to a phone.

And if I remember right, doesn't it only trigger if you flash an unofficial kernel through desktop Odin only? I know the Auto Root Package won't trigger it, and neither will Mobile Odin.

Your correct only desktop triggers the yellow triangle.
Also just my steps to flashing roms 4 the e4gt
1. odin stock el29 rooted
2. flash the el26 cwm kernel (I provided on a few post back)
3. boot into recovery!
Flash what ever you want!
If you want to flash something else repeat those step! As you venture on you will get the hang of things! I hope!

By no means is this a negative remark toward any developer, just sort of expected a lot more because it is a nice phone. I was looking to flash the Platinum version of this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1712362 since I love the color red. But, thanks for help. I really appreciate it when someone actually gives an answer to a question instead of bash people new to a phone.

I can vouch for AOKP M6. I have had two problems, both have fixed themselves(with time for the rom to settle in). Haven't tried Paranoid Android or CM9 yet. And I don't plan on it, as AOKP has everything I want in a rom.

I had all these on the Vibrant, but non are as stable as they were on the vibrant (as least by what I have read). AOKP would probably be my first choice because I am very familiar with Romanbb's work since he had a Vibrant at one time and is one of the best dev's.

Paranoid is a great ROM but some things are just a little to small for my tastes. But if I had a Galaxy Note then Paranoid would be the one for sure. But still my question wasn't answered, not getting smart, just looking for an answer...Do I need to flash back to EL26 or 29 before flashing an ICS ROM, or can I use the new safe kernels built from source? I think I need to be held by the hand on my first one.

You should be good from one of the safe kernels from source. I used Agat's recovery from source to flash AOKP from stock FF18 with no problems, did the normal factory reset instead of one of those format all zips. Not a problem with it. It should be safe to do as many factory resets/data wipes as you want from what I understand.

The agats kernel is safe. Flashed two ICS roms already. If you like red, check out the hooligan rom by MaNuFaN721. Themed red.
