Migrating from multi image build (SDK 2.6.1) to sysbuild (SDK 2.8.0)

[raphystark]

Hello,

I am currently stuck trying to migrate a project to the 2.8.0 version of the NC SDK.

I followed the exercice of the Nordic Academy : FOTA over BLE.

It works with the project when I add the two lines in the prj.conf and setting the SDK and toolchain to 2.6.1 (Extension Pack with VSCode).

But when I try to build with the 2.8.0 it doesn't work.

Is there a quick tutorial for begginers to understand how sysbuild configurations works ?

The Migrating to sysbuild tutorial hasn't allow me to do it.

Have a nice day,

Raphaël.

Hello,

''The youtube video explains indeed how to implement FOTA over BLE using sysbuild but it is supposed to work with the board nrf52840dk/nrf52840.'' Currently this chapter 8 supports version v2.5.2 to v2.6.1.

Hello,

Sorry but we misunderstood each other :
- the chapter 8 Lesson 3 of the academy deals with FOTA over BLE with the nrf5340dk and SDK 2.6.1.
- the YouTube video (YouTube link) deals with FOTA over BLE with the nrf52840dk and SDK 2.8.0.
- I'm looking for FOTA over BLE with the nrf5340dk and SDK 2.8.0.

Even if it may seem obvious, it is not to me.

Thank you,

Raphaël.

Hello Raphael,

We are aiming for support FOTA over BLE on SDK v2.8.0 from the beginning of February.

Hello Kazi.

Since our last chat, I managed to make it work with the nrf5340dk from the SMP server sample.
Need some modifications e.g. to tell the cores to start on their internal clock...
But we couldn't adapt our whole project above this sample, so.. let's wait for a full support.

Thank you.

Raphaël.

So, can you please clarify this point ? it is possible but won’t work everytime ? Is it sure that in February, the 2.8.0 version of the SDK will fully support FOTA over BLE for the nrf54L15 ? Thanks.
