 I&amp;#39;d like to collect statistics from BLE physical layer, namely about errors that have occurred in receiving packets on a BLE advertisement channel.

&lt;p&gt;you&amp;#39;re assumption is correct, i.e. you will not be able to get this data while the SoftDevice is active, since it will block the RADIO peripheral and there is no public sd_ API to get this data from the SoftDevice. That said, we&amp;#39;re looking into adding this feature to our SoftDevices, but I cannot give ETA or  you any guarantee that it will be implemented  for that matter&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Yes, you&amp;#39;ll have to use the RADIO peripheral directly and parse the advertisement packets yourself.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best regards&lt;/p&gt;
