nRF52 ANT DFU, hangs at wait_for_events()

[DGraham]

Hello, I'm trying to implement a buttonless DFU via ANT for a custom nRF52 board. I've got the 212 v4.02 Softdevice and I'm using the 14.0.0 SDK. I am able to transmit and receive via ANT, I am able to go into my bootloader, and I can progress through the bootloader until I hit the "err_code = bootloader_dfu_start();" line. This function progresses until it hits "wait_for_events()". At this point it just hangs waiting for (I assume) an ANT event that never occurs.

When I attempt to connect to the device via "OTAUpdater.exe" I am unable to, thus no ANT event. I set the manufacturer ID and product ID to wildcard (0), select nRF52 as the platform, and it is unable to see my board. When the ANT-FS in the bootloader times out (~2 minutes via default setting), it kicks me back to my main program code, at which point ANT broadcasting starts working immediately.

I am able to perform an OTA update on my nRF52 DK using the same method I am trying with my custom device. Any suggestions?

Just to confirm, you have a LFXO witha frequency tolerance less than 50 ppm? It is weird that it works in application code, and on the nRF52 DK as well.

Have you tried to use the bootloader directly? It is a shot in the dark though. Sounds to me like it is some kind of hardware issue, but I'm not sure what. Have you tested with several of these custom boards?
