Oh, download winRAR as suggested, open the .zip folder, and copy the .apk onto your phone.
Then, install it, reboot your phone, and it should work flawlessy. The reboot is necessary, as it is a system app.

Then is it possible its zipped so it can be flashed? Also I'm pretty sure it won't work with ice cream sandwich

Huh, thats odd. There is no .apk file when I opened it. Any of you who have tried it have an idea to where it is or how to get it?

Could be a corrupt zip? Here's the APK directly: T-Mobile TV
The app runs for me on ICS SK3 but says something is blocking it from initializing my trial and cannot continue

Idk, with any app I install the .apk directly, unless noted otherwise, like with the LG Camera.
And probably not, My Account and a bunch of T-Mobile apps don't work on ICS in general, doesn't matter what ROM or device. You'll have to wait till they update, or use a GB ROM in the meantime.

Whambam I've got it! You don't need to be deoxed and all that jazz. To use the hulu app you will need the modified version of flash. But to watch on the browser you can use the newest version of flash.
Step 1. Open the browser app
Step 2. Clear the url and type "about:debug" then press go (if you did it right nothing will happen)
Step 3. Press menu>more>settings
Step 4. Scroll down UAString then select" desktop"
Tada!!!!
Edit: apparently you still need the modded Hulu flash

Strange because it works on my friends moto x and my incredible but I will admit I am running the modifed flash but my friends x is using the stock flash.

It works on the modified flash. I have not found a modified version of the newest flash yet.
didn't work for me... Where can I find the hulu app? I searched and couldn't find it in the market.

Modifying flash is quite easy. Just edit libflashplayer.so and change "AND 10,1,92,10" to "WIN 10,1,82,76".

Sorry, not going to post an apk. I've been down that road and you get nothing but grief from everyone for whom it doesn't work.
Again, it's easy to do. This is the Development forum. I would expect folks posting here to be familiar with the basics of packing/unpacking/signing apks and using a hex editor.

Not sure what version this is, but just from the size of the included libflashplayer.so file it's clearly not the latest.

Unpacking the apk and isolating the file was no problem. But opening the file in a hex editor (I just tried an online one) produced a bunch of binary code I could not understand. Maybe when I get off of work I'll have more time to try and figure this out.

Actually, I found what seems to be an even better way. With this method you can keep the newest version of Flashplayer (10.1.92.xx from the Nexus/Market), but enable Hulu. Download the HuluPack 2.zip above. Open it and extract the install_flash_player.apk from the zip. Now open the .apk (explore, not try to isntall, Astro works well here), and find the libflashplayer.so file inside the lib folder in the .apk. Extract this to your SD card. Open root explorer, navigate to /system/lib and rename libflashplayer.so to libflashplayer.bak or cut and paste it to your SD card, whatever, just make sure you don't delete it. Now copy the libflashplayer.so from the HuluPack2 install_flash.apk into /system/lib. You can do all this whether Flash is part of your rom or installed using an apk, and you can do this without rebooting the phone. After copying the libflashplayer.so to /system/lib, websites will recognize your flash player as a slightly older version of desktop flash, 10.52.x.x, and Hulu will work, but you will still get the benefit of better performance from the most recent flash player available.
Hey all.
I was messing around today and decided to post this. If not for the current lack of development, I probably wouldn't even post this.
Just push twframework-res.apk with adb, root explorer or root manager. be sure you overwrite the existing .apk.
The screenshot posted below was taken on the fly. you'll notice I'm using TEAM AERODKNG's Notification bar... Frankly, their theme is radness, but I thought maybe someone would want a little change!
word up, folks. happy MoDding.

LOL Corradokng hooked it up with a flashable framework-res.apk. Im back and will try this again. Im a goof ball and didnt check but since im back up i went into system/framework and see the following files, twframework-res.apk and framework-res.apk. I mistakenly changed the name and pasted, which softbricked.
I slapped myself in the head and tested again. Worked like a charm! I like the look, way better than before.
NOTE: Copy file to System/Framework folder
i wanna test it out. could just explain to me what you mean by push? where or oveer what do i put the .apk? thanks

go into framework folder and copy twframework-res.apk to a safe place on your sd card, in case you want to revert. With the file in the OP paste it into that directory, making sure you have w/r in root explorer or whatever you use.

try supermanager, root explorer for some reason hasnt been playing to nicely with system files and binary files.
if your follwing the process verbatim and nothing is happening try super manager or another file manager with root permissions. It should work without a hitch

Are you saying you have successfully done a full restore of a full nandroid backup?? If so that would be a big deal since I think that was the last issue with the cwm beta. Drhonk was saying he got a full restore to work at least without error but it hung on reboot.

@Ricky download file to your computer hook your phone up to the computer mount phone to computer (USB mass storage) right click file go down to send to and send it to the proper mass storage for your phone I have vista so that's how it works for me that should put the file on the root of your SD card open root explorer first go into system/framework go down to the twres apk long press it and select copy you will see paste at the bottom of your screen hit the back button twice go down to SD and put the copy in any sub folder you may want I use downloads then go down to the new file on your SD card from robbitt long press it hit move go back to system/framework in the upper right hand corner you will see a r/w press that then hit paste it will say it already exists do u want overwrite click yes back out then reboot should work with no problem.I think what u did was move the orig twres file instead of copying it hope this helps you.And thanks to robbitt love this mod sometimes its just the little things

Just recently, on two different PCs, whenever I downlaod an APK from XDA-Developers, they are saved as .zip files (saved as "app.zip" instead of "app.apk"). Downloading from other sites works fine.
Is it something with the forums? or with my PCs?
Can the file be unzipped?

Yes, the file can be unzipped & the contents are what would usually be in an apk file.
I just rename it to "app.apk" & it will work. Its just that it did not happen before, and now, on two PCs whenever I download an APK, I have to rename it first.
Apk in .zip
All APK's are just zip files in a format that Android understands and can un-zip almost like and be installed like a program. So, i think, you need to just change the .zip extension to .apk
The main question was that, previuosly downlaoded APK's from XDA were fine, now, they are saved as .zip. why?

Probably because its not illegal I guess... if you were to upload a paid app as an APK u could get in trouble whereas if its in a .zip file then its not considered an illegal file... if you get me... another possibility is that it just takes up less space hope this helps

Sometimes I find helpful apps on the internet using my pc. When I download them, they come as an apk, which i put into the root of my sd card. I use a file manager to find it, click it, then install it. EASY.
Well, lately I've run into a few that only come as a .zip. Most of them look like they have the same stuff in them. Anyways, how would I install an apk that comes as a .zip? Do i do it like how I flash stuff, by going into recovery and installing zip from sd?
If it is a flashable zip you can flash it. Otherwise, extract the apk from the zip and install.
Can I delete apks and zips from my root folder that i have installed, to make space and keep it neat, without it hurting the functionality of the stuff? For example, I put a ROM's zip in the root, and flashed it. can i delete that zip now?
I cant install the zips from recovery! It starts the install, then goes to 'finding update blah bla" ... 'installing update blah blah" installation aborted

While you can delete zips after installation, it's always a good idea to keep your ROM zip on the SD card. That way if you decide to play around with stuff that you don't know alot about, and mess up your phones functionality, you can reflash without needing a computer.

Copy both files to system/app and give them the same permissions as the other files in that folder.
Do the same with the attached files (LG Home selector).
Reboot the phone and it will ask you what home app to use.
Afterwards, you can delete the apk of your current Home app.
