i even added bootloader_utill.c, dfu_app_handler.c, and added required files needed for dfu service to ble_app_hrs_with out dfu. this is compiled with out any problem. flashed to the pca10028. still it is not displaying the device name in nRFTool box application.

You have to use the documentation from the correct SDK version. You are using SDK v10.0.0 and you should therefore use the this guide for Adding DFU support to yourr application. If you run into any issues, then I recommend that you follow @nospam2000 's advice and compare your example to an example that already has DFU support.

The best way to start is to use one of the project files of the hrs example which already includes DFU. You can find them under nRF5_SDK_11.0.0_89a8197/examples/ble_peripheral/ble_app_hrs/pca10028/s130_with_dfu

The #define BLE_DFU_APP_SUPPORT is used to enable the DFU support in this example.

The error "cannot open source file" is problably because you didn't include the directory which contains the header file to the include search path which might also explain the other errors. I don't know Keil, but in the gcc Makefile it is done this way: INC_PATHS += -I$(abspath ../../../../../../components/ble/ble_services/ble_dfu)

Just compare the two folders examples/ble_peripheral/ble_app_hrs/pca10028/s130_with_dfu/S130/armv4 and examples/ble_peripheral/ble_app_hrs/pca10028/s130_with_dfu/S130_with_dfu/armv4 to see the different project settings (the main.c sourcecode is identical!).
