Ok, let me know what you find after adding more logging around the SystemReset() calls.

Thanks for your answer.

First information, I use SDK 12.3 and SD132v3

This is a custom FW, so not directly derived from SDK examples. So I don't have app_error_fault_handler, but something similar. I'll put some more loging, especially around SystemReset() calls.

Hi Thierry,

you are correct that the SREQ bit is only set when a SoftReset has been performed, i.e. sd_nvic_SystemReset() or NVIC_SystemReset().

I assume that you're debugging the application(not the BL) when you reproduce the issue? Have you disabled optimization to ensure that you do not remove any debug information. Are you checking if you're ending up in the app_error_fault_handler in app_error_fault_handler?

Lastly, which SDK and SoftDevice versions are you using?

Best regards

Bjørn
