Got 3 kryptview boxes delivered last Thursday and all successfully uploaded with new software.... bar one !! Looking through the threads I have yet to find a solution. Tried the "timing of the on/off button is vital" method at the back of the box but to no avail. Me thinks there may be a few faulty boxes floating around. I contacted the supplier in the UK and he said he would replace if I could not get it to work. The other boxes are all working fine and uploades within 30 seconds from my desktop PC which has windows XP. The remote seems to be working slightly better with the 120709 firmware.
Pierre, You say you have flashed 2 boxes OK. Why don't you try to flash from one of the good boxes to the box that wont flash. It's easy enough.
Connect the (good), flashed box to the TV
Connect the 2 boxes with the RS232 cable,
Turn off the one to be flashed,with the switch at the back
On the flashed box press Menu on the remote
Then Installation
Then enter password , 0000, (unless you have changed it)
Then Data Download
Select S/W transfer
Hit send then turn on the box that you want to flash
Should start straight away , Wait for download complete.
Hi gaffs89
I am having the same problem so I tried what you said above but the working box just came up FAIL. Any other ideas, I'm losing the plot here!

It might be your cable, it has to be a RS232 null modem cable.Other wise it sounds like it's your box.

Well if you've managed 2 already with no problems then you obviously know what you're doing, you must've got a dodgey box.Did you try doing a ' Factory default 'it's in the instalation menu. Then try to flash it.

quite possible as its a ribbon cable going from the serial port to a connector on thr main board, might be connected the wrong way around or not connected at all,.remove the power & get the screwdriver out & have a peek,...I've seen that happen on dreamboxes, these boxes are lashed out of the factory with little or no QC.

Hi - has anyone else had problems scanning?
I got my Kryptview today and flashed it with no problems.
However, when I go to scan the channels it doesn't seem to be working. I have followed the "scanning" link further up this page and I get to the screen where I choose my provider. I get as far as the final screen (titled Network Scan and Add TP List).
It waits on this screen for maybe 20 seconds and then my screen goes totally black and nothing happens. SCAN is still displayed on the front of the box at this point. Is it actually scanning and I just have to wait for an hour or so for it to finish or is it not working? It doesn't seem to be doing anything to me anyway.
Cheers in advance for any advice you could give.

If you no someone else with the same box,and that has been flashed, you can do a software transfer.Main menu-Installation-Enter your password-Data download-S/w transfer.Connect both boxes using a null modem cable.Keep your box facing away from the remote and only use the remote on the box your getting the transfer from.

most people have trouble using vista,some say they have no trouble when they turn off the user account control in vista,and download the proper drivers.
