ANT DFU-OTA Update Fail

Hello,

I am trying the ANT-OTA DFU Update using an ANT Stick and the nr51422 pca 10028 board. The ANT Updater shows that the Image Upload is completed. I am uploading the s210 OTA Tester Application. But the application is not being loaded because the ANTWare II isn't detecting the ANT broadcast from the board. Also, the size of the application, when seen from the nrfgo Studio stays the same. I'm using the SDK 10 version.

File_before_OTA.hex : This is the Hex when the experimental_ant_bootloader is loaded on the board.

File_after_OTA.hex :This is the Hex after the ota_tester is loaded on the board via OTA Updater 1.4 (via application bar) .

File_after_BootloaderOTA.hex :This is the Hex after a custom file with boootloader is loaded on the board via OTA Updater 1.4 (via bootloader bar) .

nrf51422_xxac.hex: Application to be uploaded via OTA Updater.

Thank You.

  • Hi Roshan,

    Sorry for the late response.

    We found that it was a bug that if you enable "Enable softdevice protection" when flashing the softdevice in nRFgo Studio , then the DFU bootloader won't be able to start the application.

    So could you please test flashing the softdevice with the option "Enable softdevice protection" unchecked and let me know the result ?

  • Hello Hung,

    I have updated the application that I used to update with the OTA Updater. Yes, I have tested the SDK with the application using s310( not s210). This case works perfectly. With my customised application and board, it displays the information in the OTA Updater, but when the application is updated, the application does not start. So , the only thing it comes down to is, how is the application that I have attached differs from the application (Ota Tester). What would be the case when the sample bootloader doesn't work and I would need to write a new bootloader code?
