Hi Amanda Hsieh

I'm facing the same problem reported that I the build script doesn't work for SoftDevice controller.

Thanks to your proposal, I was able to build and test the FOTA operation with a reduced features set of the SoftDevice cotroller.

Also, I found that it's mentioned in the LE audio application user guide that the SoftDevice controller with all features enabled can't fit in the flash along with the bootloader.
https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/latest/nrf/applications/nrf5340_audio/doc/fota.html#updating-the-softdevice

I'm wondering if these limitations are going to be fixed in next releases as my application requires switching between LE audio CIS/BIS modes dynamically and for this purpose I need to have the complete set of features of the controller, Do you have any idea?

Thanks,

Ahmed

Hi,

I cannot find this line "#include "dfu_entry.h"" in the https://github.com/nrfconnect/sdk-nrf/blob/v2.6.0/applications/nrf5340_audio/src/bluetooth/bt_stream/broadcast/broadcast_sink.c. Please make sure the files from v2.6.0 nrf5340_audio application.

If you use VS code to build the code, you have to add the overlay/configs to the build configuration manually if you have extra settings.

Hi Amanda Hsieh

When I try to build using the mentioned command, I get the following error. Even when I delete the build folder initially. The thing is, I have extra code added to the receiver application to advertise, allow a connection, and received commands over NUS. This all builds fine when using the buildprog Python script

Hi,

Could you try to add the following configs in the child_image/hci_ipc.conf to reduce the size:

CONFIG_BT_ISO_CENTRAL=n
CONFIG_BT_ISO_BROADCASTER=n
CONFIG_BT_ISO_SYNC_RECEIVER=n
CONFIG_BT_PER_ADV_SYNC_TRANSFER_RECEIVER=n
CONFIG_BT_PER_ADV_SYNC_TRANSFER_SENDER=n

and this command to build for DFU?

$ west build -b nrf5340_audio_dk_nrf5340_cpuapp -p -d headset_dfu -- -DCONFIG_AUDIO_DEV=1 -DCONFIG_AUDIO_DFU=2 -DCONFIG_MCUMGR=y CONFIG_BOOTLOADER_MCUBOOT=y

Hi,

The buildprog.py can only support the LE Audio controller for nRF5340 instead of the SoftDevice Controller. Because the default controller in v2.6.0 has been changed from the LE Audio controller for nRF5340 to the SoftDevice Controller, it causes that errors. We will update the guide later. Since the developer is out of the office for the Easter holiday, I will update the case when I gather enough information.

Due to the Easter holidays in Norway, we are less staffed than usual. During this time, you may receive late responses. After next Monday, staff will return to normal. Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for your patience.

Regards,
Amanda H.
