Problem solved. I added child_image/mcuboot.conf file to my project and multithreading config inside.

CONFIG_MULTITHREADING=y

Best regards

After many tries I builded separate project and flash is working. But it still doesn't work in my main project :(. My main project has MCUBoot and FOTA (which is working fine).

My terminal info: (sorry, but I couldn't paste it in another way)

Is it possible that flash settings make this issue?

# Flash
CONFIG_FLASH=y
CONFIG_FLASH_PAGE_LAYOUT=y
CONFIG_FLASH_MAP=y
CONFIG_NVS=y
CONFIG_DISABLE_FLASH_PATCH=y

CONFIG_MPU_ALLOW_FLASH_WRITE=y
CONFIG_ZCBOR=y

Hello,

As a starting point, I recommend you follow the Nordic Developer Academy chapter about SPI communication and see the exercise on interfacing a TFT screen. The steps you should follow are:

Enable the SPI and GPIO drivers. Create an overlay file for your board in the boards directory, connecting the SPI memory to the appropriate GPIO pins on the nRF2840DK; refer to this page.

I recommend referring to this sample from Zephyr.

Kind Regards,
