it won't work with any others at this time (June 2017).
The older Wi-Fi method was the Flucard and Image Sync is not compatible with that. Setting up a Flucard is more comparable to setting up a Theta 360.
The Flucard software is built into the card and should work with any compatible Pentax including the K-3. As to other compatible cameras I can't find a list anywhere! Anyhow, this page describes how to set it:

In summary you need to network your phone to FLUCARD_for_PENTAX.
I'm surprised at how many computer literate people keep getting Image Sync and Flucard for Pentax mixed up. They are completely independent of each other. Or is it Pentax forgot to include an instruction sheet with the Flucard?

This is awe-inspiring work. One day you may just have to write a guide on how to use these flash units, as well as getting the maximum effectiveness out of them.

Johnsons Photopia Ltd
See http://www.ricoh-imaging.co.uk/en/repair-process.html
Also Alan Marlow of Shepperton Surrey is a reliable independent repairer.
See http://www.cam-rep.co.uk/
Locally you have Bristol Cameras who are Pentax dealers so they may be able to help or more likely act as agents for Johnsons and take a cut on top!
Others may have more local knowledge of repairers local to Bristol.
I have a spare new K-50 body and have PM'd you with details should you prefer that to getting the existing one repaired.

Not sure how the flash would have helped though and seems the other tog hasn't quite got to grips with things!

CD or downloadable update?
What do you men by loaded? Do you mean put the CD in or actually install it?
What might not have been selected?
Does McGregNi's mini guide help?
https://www.pentaxuser.com/forum/topic/a-mini-guide-to-pentax-digital-camera-uti...
If you're still stuck would you describe your process up to the point 'Not selected' appeared?
May I suggest you download the update and install that; it will ask for the original disk. If you don't have that there is a work around but won't get into that for now!
PS, it you're trying to get it to work on a ZX81, it doesn't have enough ram!
