Hi all,
I have a custom board that closely follows the nrf9160-DK board, apart from the fact that I have not serial communication with the nrf9160 module. I am trying to run the same code on both devices (a modified version of the location example). On both devices I get LTE Cell Change event at some point after boot, however while the DK is able to establish an LTEM connection (Registered Roaming), the custom board is not able to do so even though both boards are able to identified the LTE Cell with the same ID.
Looking at the difference between the logs, I can see that the custom device does not triggers PDN_EVENT_ACTIVATED event.
One difference between the two device was that I did onboard the nrf9160DK one nrfcloud while I can't do that for the custom board. Also these two board are using the simcards from the same provider.
Am I missing a step in bringing up the custom device or would that be related to the LTE link strength which I attempted to read without much success using
lte_lc_conn_eval_params_get().

Using the modem shell example (over RTT) I get a similar result:
Where the DK is able to establish a connection (RCC Connected) but the custom board is stuck on searching.
