DFU Bootloader Porting from SDK 6.0.0 to SDK 6.1.0.

[Raghu GS]

Hi,

I want to add DFU OTA feature for my project, I use SDK 6.1.0 and S110 7.1.0, I found a sample Bootloader code for different version of SDK (SDK 6.0.0), from Github [https://github.com/NordicSemiconductor/nrf51-dfu-bootloader-for-gcc-compiler] , The changes I have done is changing the board (to PCA10001) and changing the I/O's, but it seems to not even advertise, finally found that Pstorage register function returned "invalid Parameter Error" , so requested extra bytes(~2 bytes) of memory and the device was advertising as DFUTarg, but when I select my application hex file, uploading status goes halt, and DFU Timeout occurs and gets disconnected, Is there anything changes to be made to port to SDK 6.1.0 and also I need it to be ported to support Single Bank mode, How is it done, is there any procedure to be followed to port. I use Eclipse IDE, nRF Tool Android app.

Hi Raghu,

I assume you have updated the makefile to include the dfu_single_bank.c instead of the dfu_dual_bank.c. Anyway, I have tested and made a project based on the 2 examples on Github, please test and let me know if it works. The project is attached in the answer.

Hi Raghu,

There is a chance that nRFToolbox for Android wasn't made to work with hex file more than 127kB. I will check with developer. I hope everything goes fine with the .bin file.
