NRF52832: The app is repeatedly disconnected after the Apple phone is paired with the DFU

Here is my advertising interval and connection parameter configuration(SDK15.0.0 softdevice6.0.0) :

Hi, 

Do you have an application on the device beside the bootloader ? 

You are saying you connect to the bootloader then you restart bluetooth on the phone, then leave it like that ? 

If it's the case and if you don't have any application, there is an inactive timer on the bootloader that restart it if the phone does nothing.

Hi, 

I'm sure that I'm running an application. And this application is a demo about ANCS.

This is my log (Disconnection in log is automatic and at intervals of 30s, Follow the above procedure):

 Thank you for any reply.

Hi, 

 

Could you describe in more detail how do you test again ? How is it related to DFU ? 

If you simply test softdevice+ancs (no bootloader) what do you see ?

[zimo]

Hi,

 Actually, this is not related to DFU.

 First, I download softdevice and ANCS (without bootloader). Then I just use keil to download and run only app about ANCS.

 The next step is to search for and connect to the bluetooth device via my phone app.

 Finally, do the following.

Operation flow:

       1. First connect bluetooth and pair.

       2. Turn off the Apple phone system Bluetooth and then open.

This time the automatic connection will be repeated and automatically disconnected.

I tested this because our project have this problem right now.
