As I am new to the MT4G and to android in itself I am having problems installing this app on my phone.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=861924

If I've come to understand the term "push" correctly I am to use "Root Explorer" to copy the .apk (which I dropped into my sd card via drag and drop on my desktop) into /systems/app and then install from there.
I've done this method with r/w on and after I hit install it says "application not installed"

If I understand "flashing" correctly I've booted into recovery and then went to "install zip from sd card" and then I chose the zip which I downloaded from the original thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=857095
This is ALL I did on the recovery screen.
Am I missing something in this method of flashing the zip?

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
I swear all I need is to learn it once (if explained thoroughly) and I'll be able to do it myself from that point on.

Once again, thanks.

it seems a lot of people are having the same problem in that thread... your best bet is to ask one of them if they fixed it for their own phones

side note: when people say push... some times your really have to push it you cant just copy it... you would plug in your phone> adb push file... theres a huge thread if you wanna learn more about adb...

It may or may not work on "sense" roms. I'm running it on CM and I pushed it through ADB. I suppose I may go back to stock rom and try it during the weekend. I wouldn't post/linked to it if it did not work for me (like people that link to Gingerbread keyboard)

when you go into recovery, go to advanced (i think) and then click on mounts or something like that. then your going to click on mount/system. once you've done that, flask the .zip file and reboot, and you're good to go. its working perfectly on my mt4g. im going to remove it though because im not that thrilled with it, but it is an excellent player and with some future developement can become the best one out there, just not my cup of tea right now. btw, the recovery instrctions above is assuming you are using clockwork recovery, which you should be sonce its the only one available at the moment. any problems, let me know i'll walk you through it

Do I need to unmount when I'm done and THEN reboot?

*Awesome! Followed your instructions and it worked like a charm. Thanks!
