Flashing Failure on nRF52832 via VSCode and J-Link Reset Pin Issue

[rashfords]

Dear Nordic Support Team,​​

I am experiencing difficulties flashing firmware to my ​​nRF52832​​ development board using ​​VSCode​​ with west flash, followed by J-Link connectivity issues. The problem seems hardware-related, and I would appreciate your expertise to resolve it.

​​Issue Summary​​

1. ​​VSCode Flashing Error (Image 1):​​

   • Command: west flash with nrfjprog runner (mass erase enabled).
   • Error sequence:
     • Error -102 during "read device info" and "read memory_descriptors".
     • Final error: JlinkARM DLL reported an error.

2. ​​J-Link Commander Diagnosis (Image 2):​​

   • Connection via ​​SWD​​ repeatedly fails with:
     • RESET (pin 15) high, but should be low. Please check target hardware.
   • Attempts to "connect under reset" yield the same result.
