 I read on the download site of the nrf command line tools that they are being deprecated. 
 I want to be sure that i&amp;#39;m correct here: 1. nrfjprog is replaced by nrfutil device ? 
 2. megehex has a replacement or it&amp;#39;s not being installed anymore as</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Tue, 11 Mar 2025 08:57:51 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/119649/deprecation-of-nrfjprog-and-mergehex" /><item><title>RE: deprecation of nrfjprog and mergehex.</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/526697?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 11 Mar 2025 08:57:51 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:272ff999-faad-417f-957d-1853924af3f4</guid><dc:creator>Einar Thorsrud</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You are right that nrfjprog is replaced by nrfutil device. When it comes to mergehex, the alternative is &lt;a href="https://github.com/nrfconnect/sdk-zephyr/blob/ec7044437e90ca112f5cc5ff452f39cffacfd4c7/scripts/build/mergehex.py"&gt;mergehex.py&lt;/a&gt; which is part of the SDK.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Regardng docker image,&amp;nbsp;the documentation under &lt;a href="https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ncs-2.9.0/page/nrf/scripts/docker/README.html"&gt;nRF Connect SDK toolchain Docker image&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;document and updated&amp;nbsp;docker image using nrfutil and not the old nRF Command Line Tools.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
