 By mistake, I clicked &amp;#39;fill with zero&amp;#39; button in Jflash, may I ask, is my chip bricked because of this? Thanks. 
 The following lists my steps: 
 
 
 program the softdevice 4.0.2 in jflash 
 
 
 compile heart sample project in keil and load</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Tue, 30 May 2017 05:04:11 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/22289/i-clicked-fill-with-zero-in-jflash-bricked-the-chip" /><item><title>RE: I clicked 'fill with zero' in Jflash.

Since I flashed the DFU example, the UICR is not zero I guess.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;By trying several times, this issue is resolved by:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;C:\Users\vincent&amp;gt;nrfjprog --recover -f NRF52
Recovering device. This operation might take 30s.
Erasing user code and UICR flash areas.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am not sure why SWD can not connect to my chip if UICR is not cleaned....&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;DFU sample still does not work - I will try again later&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: I clicked 'fill with zero' in Jflash.

&lt;p&gt;Looks like a solder issue I guess. I will re-solder and try again.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thank you so much&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: I clicked 'fill with zero' in Jflash.
