Kryptview a780 stuck at 100% then Downloading is NOT requested

[seanb]

Hello everyone, Initially my box was stuck at 100% when trying to download SW. I have since learned I need to manually flash via my laptop. I have now purchased three sets of RS232 USB convertors, but when I click start on KV loader it then says DOWNLOADING NOT REQUESTED. I have checked that the com is correct, correct bin, tried red red standby etc but still stuck. Can anyone give any clues as to what else can be tried to get it to flash. Thanks Sean

Thanks DK, but nope the cable is correct, USB to Female 9 pin connector, also bought USB to male with a Female Female adaptor, but nowt worked. I note there are a number of people with the same issue. Thanks anyway.

ok nearly missed read your post if it fails at 100% via lan that's because you have old sw on and that's normal ,download not requested request is a connection problem between pc and box you need to click start and then power on box you can get timeing wrong so keep trying ,failing that have you a m8 with a box that's updated as you can do box to box transfer with null modem lead

Have the box that is updated conectd to the tv.

Connect the two with Null Modem Cable
Select Data Download from the Instalation menu
Select Code Send
Hit Start

Power on the receiving box.


The display on the receiving box should send the dashes round in circles.

course it works or user is using wrong cable,have you used that cable before the null modem?

[seanb]

Cactikid, If it wasn't for me being pleasant minded, I truly would let rip on you. Please just be quiet go away. I've read a number of your comments on a couple of sites, and you are simply downright rude to people. Learn some manners before jumping on people accusing them of things you CLEARLY know nothing about.

[cactikid]

know nothing wow think loads would disagree there,a common thing bought is a serial cable for flashing boxes,it does not work no matter how much you try,people dont want to read the posts and always want spoonfeeding,so the question asked again is it a null modem cable and it has been used before for flashing boxes?

[seanb]

Please CACTIKID, Stay away from my posts. Every day new people come on here inexperienced and looking for help. Its got NOTHING to do with being SPOONFED, and your arrogance defies belief. If you cant respond to people in a courteous manner, SIMPLY DO NOT POST!!!! NOW PLEASE GO AWAY AND BELITTLE SOMEONE ELSE.

fine if you dont want help i wont hold it against you.
