Bluetooth Peripheral Uart Sample Not Pairing, unclear RTT instructions

Sample Project: Bluetooth Peripheral UART

Hi there,

I'm having a hard time pairing my phone with the device. When i try to pair with my phone, i get a pop up: "Couldn't connect with NORDIC_UART_SERVICE because of incorrect pin or passkey". After which, LED2 comes on and LED1 stays on instead of doing its blinky (according to the readme, this indicates an active connection).

However, the device is not listed under "Connected Devices" on my phone, and I'm unable to communicate with it via a bluetooth serial terminal.

I'm also unable to see the debug logs, the readme debugg section instructs me to see :ref:`testing_rtt_connect`, where can I see this reference? The reference is highlighted like a URL in the github repo, but only takes me back to the same page.

Note that I am using the prj_minimal.conf file as instructed for the nRF52dk. Otherwise, I have changed nothing else with the sample.

Thank you for you time,

James
