Unable to read logged files in nrf logger and nrf connect app

[raju]

I want to collect data for analysis sent from peripheral(ble_app_uart example), I connected peripheral device to app(nrf connect) and enabled service, now the data is sent from peripheral to central, I collected the data of about 1MB. It takes lot of time to save it and when I try to open the saved file it says "Saving a new version of your file as Google Docs" , but the process never completes and at the end I am getting message " Upload/Conversion Error" - error occurred while trying to upload/convert your document.

How to save/read data of more than 1MB? Is there any changes in apps will help? or any other apps will help me to save/read data (I already tried with nRF Connect and nRF Logger).

Hi,

The problem here is Google Docs. The log file is saved as a .txt file on your phone, but when you try to open the file in Google Docs it will try to upload the document to Google Drive. The file is typically located in the folder /sdcard/Nordic Semiconductor. You can try to use another text-editor app to open the file, or send the file to your email, or plug the phone into the computer and copy the log file to the computer.

Hi,

log file larger than 20MB is not saving from either nRF Connect or nRF Logger app. I tried other options share and copy, didnt work. I get app crash message " Unfortunately nRF Logger closed"

Saving 20MB should not be a problem, but with sharing there is a ~1MB limit. Do you have the newest version of the app?

sorry for my late reply, I saved lower than 20MB data and completed half of my project, but still installing newer version of app didnt help in saving higher than 20MB data. thank you.

Are you seeing this issue exactly at 20MB? Does 19 MB work?
