DFU reset for part 2 / 2

[Fabien Comte]

Hello,

I have a bootloader with a low power wait for power button on startup.

When I do a BLE DFU update of bootloader + SD + appli, the Nordic smartphone application cut update in two parts and it looks like it have to reboot at the middle.

I need to avoid my low power wait if it's a DFU update that continues. How can i know that a DFU update is in progress to skip this part ?

Thank you.

It's the nature of Softdevice update that the application to be erase to have enough swap page. And also when you update the bootloader a reset is needed for the MBR to replace the old bootloader with the new one. After the reset, the new bootloader will expect the new application image to be updated.

What exactly you do in your "low power wait" ? Where do you implement the wait ? The DFU update progress is stored in bootloader setting. However, I don't think application update (phase 2)is considered as update in progress but it's a normal new application update (like the first application you update when the chip is blank).

Hello, Thank you for your help. Low power wait is just my device wait for user press power on button in a sleep mode. The problem is the button is not pressed by user during the update and i have to skip that if an update is in progress. But how to know ?
