A Problem on Buttonless DFU + Bonding valid.

Currently, we are testing that 「buttonless DFU + Bonding valid」 in our App.

But After performing F / W Update with DFU, other BLE Service became invisible.(※2)

So, as a result of comparing the log of the Normal Project(No problem) with the log of the current problem project,

I found that there are the following differences.(In the normal case, the following events will occur.)

· PM_EVT_SERVICE_CHANGED_IND_CONFIRMED
· PM_EVT_PEER_DATA_UPDATE_SUCCEEDED

And Compared & checked "sdk_config.h", "makefile", "linkscript file", "source file", etc. But did not find a place likely to be a cause.

How can I solve this problem?

Why does the above log difference occur?

Please answer me about my question.

  • Hi Cerevo, 

     

    I suspect that the service changed characteristic was not included in either the application or the bootloader.

    I would suggest to turn off and on the iPhone and test again. 

     

    You mentioned  a "normal case" what was that ? Which firmware did you use when you have a normal case ? 

     

    Have you test and verify your new firmware actually has other services ? (test without bootloader, flash softdevice + application directly)

  • Hi Hung Bui,

    >I suspect that the service changed characteristic was not included in either the application or the bootloader.

    No, both Bootloader (DFU) and Application are defined and activated as follows.

    #define NRF_SDH_BLE_SERVICE_CHANGED 1

    > I would suggest to turn off and on the iPhone and test again.

    I tested it again, but it was the same result.

    > You mention a "normal case" what was that? Which firmware did you use when you have a normal case?

    I added Device Information Service based on "ble_app_buttonless_dfu" in example and tested it.

    This is OK, DIS (Device Information Service) is displayed even after F / W Update.

    > Have you test and verify your new firmware actually has other services ? (test without bootloader, flash softdevice + application directly)

    Yes, My Application includes "DIS", "Battery Service", and self-defined Service like the attached photo ("Before DFU Update").

    Of course, it is tested and there is no problem.

    So, you do not know why this problem happens after all?

  • Hi Chan, 

    I was suggesting turn off and on the phone to avoid attribute table caching, but maybe it's not the case.

    Please clarify, that you can actually do DFU update with our buttonless DFU. Meaning a new image has been sent to the device and run to 100% , device updated to the new firmware ? 

    If it's the case which firmware you use first and which you used later ? 

    Please aware that when you trigger a DFU update via buttonless application, the application first switch to the DFU bootloader. And in DFU bootloader you only have the DFU service as you see in the screenshot.

    You need to verify that the new application is running. Could you use another central device and check that after the update you actually have the new application running with all the services ? 

  • Hi Hung Bui,
    >「Please clarify, that you can actually do DFU update with our buttonless DFU. Meaning a new image has been sent to the device and run to 100%, device updated to the new firmware?」
    Yes, I could transfer 100% without problems.
    I also attach evidence log(※1).
    >「 If it's the case which firmware you use first and which you used later?」
    No, the newly burned F / W and Update F / W are exactly the same.

    >「Please aware that when you trigger a DFU update via buttonless application, the application first switch to the DFU bootloader. And in DFU bootloader you only have the DFU service as you see in the screenshot. 」
    Yes, I know.
    >「You need to verify that the new application is running. Could you use another central device and check that after the update you actually have the new application running with all the services ?」
    Yes, i confirmed that it works.
    Attach the evidence.(※2)  <----- Do you know the cause of this part?  Give me advice.

  • Did you do bonding  in your application and in your DFU bootloader ? If you do bonding, have you set NRF_DFU_BLE_BUTTONLESS_SUPPORTS_BONDS = 1  ? and use ble_dfu_bonded.c in your application code ?

    The line you commented out checking if the service changed flag has been set or not. If it has been set, gatt_cache_manager.c will send a service changed indication to the iPhone and the iPhone will do a service discovery. By removing that check, you always request the phone to do service discovery, resulting in the full att table read by iPhone. 

    To get the flag set, you would need to call gscm_local_database_has_changed(). This is done inside ble_dfu_buttonless_bootloader_start_prepare(), if you set the NRF_DFU_BLE_BUTTONLESS_SUPPORTS_BONDS  flag correctly, it should be called before you switch to the bootloader. 

    Note that you need to make sure the flash is being updated properly before you switch to bootloader.

    Yes, of cource.No Problem.

    For Application,

    #define BLE_DFU_ENABLED 1

    #define NRF_DFU_BLE_BUTTONLESS_SUPPORTS_BONDS 1

    #define NRF_SDH_BLE_SERVICE_CHANGED 1

    I am defining it.

    In the case of DFU,

    #define NRF_BL_DFU_ENTER_METHOD_BUTTONLESS 1

    #define NRF_DFU_BLE_REQUIRES_BONDS 1

    #define NRF_SDH_BLE_SERVICE_CHANGED 1

    I am defining it.

    Yes, I already understand the above content.

    I also confirmed the contents of "ble_dfu_buttonless_bootloader_start_prepare ()".

    ・「Note that you need to make sure the flash is being updated properly before you switch to bootloader. 

    Yes, I do not think that writing to Flash eventually went well.
    However, as in the log of (★) below, Write to Flash was also Success.

    In the end, despite successfully writing to Flash correctly,
    Why does this problem occur?
