Have been having trouble trying to flash a kryptview this evening, this box was bought brand new and when I removed the lid the cable from the db9 socket to the motherboard was made incorrectly.
I'll post up a picture later to show incase anyone else gets a dodgy one as i'd be sure that more than one left the factory that way
PICTURES BELOW

Theres a picture of the back of one of these box's on another thread, and it even says "rs232" port. If the labeling says RS232, and people are looking for DB9, it can be way too confusing to follow.
Just trying to keep it simple, as most newbies on here are clueless anyways.
Good find though.

You would be surprised how many "newbies" know what a DB9 mean. RS232 is a standardised term for data rates over a serial connection. DB9 is an exact term to type of serial interface.
How is everyone here of late :)

Anyway lol
If you are 100% sure you are flashing correctly and you are still getting the error "downloading is not requested"
Open up your box carefully making sure not to damage the screws and check the following
This is the way the box was shipped to me(unopened/factory sealed)
This is the correct way

Cheers on the back of the D9 there are numbers corresponding to pin out. Could you assign them to pin number versus cable ident to molex plug please.
Looks like a botch job in the first place, my Granny has better soldering skills.
Thanks for the share.

Sorry for the crappy photos, just thought it might save a few people some time any money, I was 100% sure I was flashing correctly and this box just wouldn't flash so I opened it up and that was my discoveries

Cheers Ferg & Cathal. Pin 1 is ground 2 and 3 are RX/TX or vice versa TX/RX.
Sorry for all the questions I am not near my box. Pin 1 should go straight through to pin 1, but are 2 and 3 straight through also or crossed over?

on my box the 2nd and 3rd were not crossed but the 1st and 3rd were so it wasnt grounded properly.
They are a decent enough box, menus a bit slow to react kinda like the replays but hey, they are the only ones working fo fair play to them

Any chance I could get your Granny's phone number??!! lol
Just popped in to see what the latest was on this, might open her up tomorrow (the box, not your Granny!!!)
Whatever you say, say nothing when you talk about you know what for if you know who might hear you, you know what youll get. Youll be sent off to you know where for you would not know how long. Maybe I could search through the threads so you dont have to ??

Had a go at this and by jaysus it worked!!
My soldering skills may not be up to the level of Sc0users granny, but I got it to hold long enough for me to flash it successfully.
Thanks for the help!!
