Hi!

[quote userid="26308" url="~/f/nordic-q-a/33323/program-flash/128941"]Yes,I flashed examples\peripheral\blinky, which works as expected (though i did not know that soft device is not required for this)[/quote]

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.

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)

[quote userid="20690" url="~/f/nordic-q-a/33323/program-flash/128921"]You flashed the BLE code (which code?) and tried to see the advertisement using nRF Connect?[/quote]

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

[quote userid="20690" url="~/f/nordic-q-a/33323/program-flash/128921"]What do you mean by this?[/quote]

getting device id using nRF command line

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

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

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?

[quote user=""]even i a getting the custom board id also.[/quote]

Could you elaborate what you mean by this?

[quote user=""]But when i am flashing the BLE code and check into the nrf connectivity application[/quote]

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

Best regards,
Joakim.

Yes i have flashed the 12.3.0 soft device using nrfgo studio and also trying to flash the example code of the same soft device. program is successfully flashed into my custom board. bcz, i have flashed the blinky code also and it would be successfully working with my custom board.

I am also getting both the id custom board as well as development board .

But when i flashed the BLE code and and check into the nrf connectivity app. it has not advertise.

Hi!

This might be caused by a missing softdevice. Did you remember to flash the correct softdevice to your custom board?

Best regards.
