I can build and flash OK
The blinky sketch runs
However, when I load up examples/ble_peripheral/ble_app_proximity/pca10040/s132/armgcc and issue &amp;quot;make flash_softdevice&amp;quot; I get what looks OK .. </description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Wed, 04 May 2016 09:37:02 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/13629/ble-device-not-visible" /><item><title>RE: ble device not visible</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/52023?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 04 May 2016 09:37:02 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:6c96b9bc-b6dc-4941-ac29-90b22807359d</guid><dc:creator>paul_tanner</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;OK Thx. I tried this again.  This is now the correct sequence.  When using a soft device you need to flash that every time and that has the effect of erasing the application too.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;make  nrf52832_xxaa_s132 (or just make)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;gives:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Compiling file: xxxx (many of these)

&lt;p&gt;Then:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;make flash_softdevice

&lt;p&gt;.. device now seen in nRF Toolbox and seems to behave as expected.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: ble device not visible</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/52024?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 04 May 2016 02:40:40 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:78ea0b9a-0a5f-47b7-83e2-7bf1eeca97d6</guid><dc:creator>RK</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;You&amp;#39;ve only flashed the softdevice, not the code.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;pre&gt;&lt;code&gt;&amp;gt;make help

following targets are available:
    nrf52832_xxaa_s132
    flash_softdevice
&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
&lt;p&gt;make the other one too to put the actual app on the device.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
