Hi Neeraj,

Make sure Txd is connected to Rxd on both the sides.

Did you try recovering the board? Is reset command working (giving Success)?

Yes, I make sure Txd is connected to RDX on both sides.

Yes while flashing I make sure recovering and reset is button is pressed and both are GND after 1-second reset button release and after 1-second recover button release.

When I execute target "demo.XXXXXX-CYBT_343026_EVAL OTA_FW_UPGRADE=1 download UART=COM7" it flashes RX LED on FTDI ft232rl.... does that mean reset command working?

 

I have a CYW920719Q40EVB-01 board and when I am using HCI to flash it flashes perfectly.

I dont think flashing red LED means reset successful. 

Just update your driver once in device manager, check if your wires are proper.
