Is there example code for over-the-air downloaded application updates?

Over the air downloaded updates are an essential feature for productization. Are there any examples showing how to implement the OAD? Also is it possible to OAD update the soft device?

  • There are examples for application update over the air in the nRF51 SDK, and accompanying iOS and Android apps showing how this can be done from a smart phone. It is also possible to do from a Windows PC, by using the development dongle and Master Control panel.

    With S110 version 6.0.0 it is theoretically possible to update the softdevice, but we don't (yet) have any example for it, and it is potentially unsafe if you can lose power at any time. Application updates are however completely safe.
