 I have a nRF51422-EK board (Rev. 1.0) that is bricked. 
 
 When connected the LD3 is on. 
 Jumpers are present on P8 and debugger. 
 Device manager (win7) assigns it a port. 
 I have removed the battery and kept it disconnected for a few days</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Tue, 10 Sep 2013 12:36:21 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/355/bricked-nrf51422-board" /><item><title>RE: Bricked nRF51422 board</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/1864?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 10 Sep 2013 12:36:21 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:04b0825e-f056-48f5-9c7c-181a1ca9cd8c</guid><dc:creator>kagislason</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Great thanks, I was looking for the accept feature but could not find it :)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Bricked nRF51422 board</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/1863?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 10 Sep 2013 12:34:07 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:d629404b-99ba-4bb9-801a-73627c93f149</guid><dc:creator>Ole Morten</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;I see you weren&amp;#39;t registered when you initially posted this question, so I accepted Hung&amp;#39;s answer for you.

They should be connected vertically not horizontally (as in the picture)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Please refer to section 2.1 in the nRF51822 Evaluation Kit Userguide v1.0 (version 1.1 is for v2.0 Kit)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Or you can have a look at the picture here:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I was able to program the chip before and I am currently using a BLE board now for testing as the ANT board is out. The problem might be related to using the debug pins (R5/R6).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Using nrfjprog --recover I get the following errors:
System off disabled until pin reset or power on reset is done.
ERROR: An error occurred while connecting to the device&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Using nrfjprog -p (or --pinreset) does give the error:
ERROR: An error occurred while connecting to the device&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Bricked nRF51422 board</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/1859?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 10 Sep 2013 09:57:12 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:7a9cbbc5-04e7-4c12-aed4-eb11c47cebe7</guid><dc:creator>Hung Bui</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;I am sorry for a late response.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Could you take a photo of your board ?
Have you make sure the board is properly powered ?
Were you able to program the chip before ? If you were, do you have any idea on what may cause the chip un-responded ?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Could you try to use nrfjprog.exe tool to recover ?
You can open Windows command prompt and type:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;nrfjprog --recover&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If error occurs, please send me a screenshot.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Bricked nRF51422 board</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/1857?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 10 Sep 2013 09:31:02 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:3557b1fe-8fa4-44a1-9c91-ed5dd09a00d6</guid><dc:creator>Bastiaan</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;The board is still out of order, any thoughts would be appreciated.
