You should be able to enable/disable the SoftDevice by using sd_softdevice_enable() and sd_softdevice_disable().

Thanks for the feedback. In keeping with the generally high quality of the nRF5 SDK I hope that symmetric init/deinit functions will be considered as part of new interfaces as this seems like a good practice to follow. Are there any suggestions for how to enable/disable the SoftDevice during operation? We were planning on shutting down the SoftDevice in some situations to save power, then re-enabling later.

Hi,

Unfortunately, there is no plan to increase support for de-initialize as of now.
