I&amp;#39;m working with nRF 52840. I&amp;#39;ve downloaded softDevice s140 using Keil. Afterwards, I selected the target to nRF52840_xxaa and then build the project of Heart Rate Application and tried to download the code, I get the following error message</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Fri, 27 Oct 2017 03:45:42 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/25869/flash-download-failed---could-not-load-file" /><item><title>RE: Flash download failed - could not load file</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/101892?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Fri, 27 Oct 2017 03:45:42 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:c2fbcbdc-46ed-46ef-bc68-bb59cd69b6cd</guid><dc:creator>Ashish</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;thanks, this works !&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Flash download failed - could not load file</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/101894?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Fri, 27 Oct 2017 03:42:53 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:f50513d2-a9bf-488f-8614-6a4ae1963a78</guid><dc:creator>Ashish</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Thanks for reply.

I&amp;#39;m also facing this problem. I used SDK14.0.0_3bcc1f7 and tried to download firmware into PCA10056 by KEIL, but the error message &amp;quot; Flash download failed &amp;quot; was shown, but it worked with NRF Studio.  The J-Link interface MCU firmware version is  &amp;quot;J-LINK OB SAM3U128-V2-NordicSemi &amp;quot;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Flash download failed - could not load file</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/101893?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 12 Oct 2017 13:06:06 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:08a7218e-d0ae-4f7a-8370-63816a06ae40</guid><dc:creator>Bj&amp;#248;rn Kvaale</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi Ashish. Could you please provide some more info: What SDK version are you using? Did you have any issues flashing the softdevice to the nrf52840? Is the power-switch set to VDD?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
