SD140 6.0.0-6-alpha BLE issues

Greetings -

I recently downloaded the latest SD140 images, 6.0.0-6-alpha, and began having issues with BLE communication.

I'm developing a custom device, based on the nRF52840, and we require both BLE and USB communication. The USB peripheral seems to be pretty much broken when the Soft Device is enabled, so I'm going to ignore that for the moment.

I recently migrated our code from the previous Soft Device, 5.0.0-5-alpha, which had working BLE (NUS and other services). When I attempted to discover and connect to the device using nRF Toolbox, I was unsuccessful. I reverted my code to the last working, pre-USB version, to remove any possible USB issues. This didn't resolve the problem. The only way to get BLE working again was to switch back to the 5.0.0-5-alpha version of the Soft Device.

  • I'm familiar with the concept - I wrote operating systems for about 20 years. I was more expressing my disbelief that a soft device update would be required which came along with a requirement that I change / upgrade my SDK AND there was no SDK update to upgrade to. As for the migration, there was no migration document for going from S140-5.0.0-5alpha to S140-6.0.0-6-alpha.
