&lt;p&gt;Yes, it is possible to update the target device over BLE using nrfutil, but you need another nRF kit in order to do so.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;pre class="ui-code" data-mode="text"&gt;Error:
No boards found.&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Comes from nrfutil, because it is looking for a DK to use as the BLE device (connectivity board) that will transfer the new application image to your target device.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So you need a spare nRF5x DK, or an nrf52840 dongle (the one made by Nordic Semiconductor).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best regards,&lt;/p&gt;
