I tried it out! The nrf_drv_gpiote_out_task_enable(..) is not necessary for this, but moving it out worked! Thank you so much!

Alright! I'll try it. I have another question, since I'm not using tasks and just GPIOTE_CONFIG_OUT_SIMPLE(false), do I still need to use nrf_drv_gpiote_out_task_enable(..)?

First, all the setup should be done before and outside of the while(true)-loop. In the code-snippet above, the while(true)-loop can be left empty.

To make gpiote work, it needs to be enabled: nrf_drv_gpiote_out_task_enable(..)

Well then I would suggest to go back to working project and do little steps;)

Tried that. The previous one was basically the blinky application. I've more or less replicated it in this program, just without the application timer and the BSP API's. Thanks for the suggestion, but yeah. It hasn't worked for me yet.

Then probably roll back to last working version and move forward in smaller steps, that should lead to sure success!

Eclipse complains that it can't be resolved, but the console shows a successful compile action. It also compiles in command prompt outside of eclipse when I call make flash. I have compiled into Hex's before and uploaded it to the board. And it has worked. I started this program from scratch and can't seem to find why it isn't working.

Why flashing Soft Device when you don't use it? Also how do you compile if Eclipse complains that some symbol cannot be resolved? Have your code ever compiled into HEX file and worked on nRF51 board? I would start from some SDK example which is 100% working by simply recompiling it, flashing to the board and testing...
