Hello,

I recommend that you take a look at the Nordic Developer Academy, which is a good starting point for exploring BLE OTA. Which version of nRF Util are you trying? Check if you have a proper installation by opening the command prompt and checking the version. Just to clarify, nRF Util is a command line tool.

Kind regards,

I recommend you go through the guides I mentioned in my first response. They explain how you can achieve DFU OTA. Let me know if you are still confused.

Yes, you can achieve OTA DFU without nRFutil, but nRFutil can be used for DFU package generation, signing, and encryption. It can communicate with the bootloader and also perform validation and verification.

Kind Regards,
