Program flash

[Faizan]

I am trying to flash the program into my custom board. and i am successfully flash the program into custom board. I have flashed the blinky code in y custom board. it's works fine. even i a getting the custom board id also.

But when i am flashing the BLE code and check into the nrf connectivity application. It is not advertising.

Is there any other method to flash the BLE code or it need some initialization for BLE code ?

Ok!

Could you tell me which device you are using? nRF52832?

So, you flash the blinky example to your board, and it works just as expected?
Did you use the ble_peripheral/experimental_ble_app_blinky?
Or one of the peripheral blinky examples which doesn't require a softdevice?

What do you mean by this?

even i a getting the custom board id also.

Could you elaborate what you mean by this?

But when i am flashing the BLE code and check into the nrf connectivity application

You flashed the BLE code (which code?) and tried to see the advertisement using nRF Connect?

Best regards,
Joakim.

I am using  nRF52832. 

Yes,I flashed  examples\peripheral\blinky, which works as expected (though i did not know that soft device is not required for this)

tried other example codes ble_peripheral\experimental_ble_app_blinky and experimental_ble_app_blinky but it does not advertise in nRF connect.

getting device id using nRF command line

Run : nrfjprog --memrd 0x100000a4 --n 8

results : 0x100000A4: E40908DD 4466D3DD | ...... fD |

Hi!

So, for the hardware peripheral examples, found in the examples/peripheral folder, the softdevice is not needed.

For the Bluetooth Low Energy examples, found in the examples/ble_peripheral folder, you need the softdevice.

However, maybe you could take a look at this post, as this might help shed some light on why your device won't advertise.
