Greetings.
I have PCA10056 0.9.3 and have downloaded nRF5_SDK_15.0.0_a53641a. I am trying to run pre-compiled ble_peripheral examples. I have tried ble_app_blinky and ble_app_uart but not successful so far. Here is the procedure I am doing and problem I am seeing.
- Connect nRF52840-PDK to USB port --> I see JLink drive in windows.
- From command prompt, navigate to armgcc folder of the application and run make flash_softdevice --> nrfjprog flashes the soft device s140_nrf52_6.0.0_softdevice.hex successfully.
- Copy precompiled hex file from application's hex folder to the JLink drive --> The board restarts and I see signs that the example is running (LED1 on in case of ble_app_blinky and LED1 blinking in case of ble_app_uart)
- For ble_app_blinky, when I open nRF Blinky app on android phone, I see the device Nordic_Blinky in the list and when I try to connect to it, I can see that LED1 turns off and LED2 turns on but the app says that Device does not have required service and disconnects (LED2 off, LED1 on).
- For ble_app_uart, I see similar problem. I can see the Nordic_UART device when I press connect in nRF UART 2.0 app but when I try to connect, it says Device does not support UART, disconnecting.
I am not sure what I am missing. I am trying to get started but kind of stuck. I was able to run normal blinky app without problem. I have also setup compilation and debugging environment with gcc and eclipse. All that seems to work with blinky but have not been able to get ble appls to work.
Please help !!!
Thanks.
