nRF52 Ble Peripheral Example - ble_app_blinky not showing led/button service

MPH

Hi I have run a few peripheral examples ok and now move to evaluation of ble_peripheral also.

I'm using this version of the SDK....

If I program the softdevice and then the application hex file into board using the files shown below the led 1 turns on as expected. 

Using rfConnect I can connect to "Nordic Blinky" and the led 2 turns on and led 1 turns off. However in the list of services I see there is not one showing for the Led/Button.

Using the blinky app for Android to connect I get a message indicating the "Device does not have the required services".

I checked the code in sdk_config.h to see if the service was enabled and this looks ok...

Looking at the help for the application at this link http://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.nordic.infocenter.sdk%2Fdita%2Fsdk%2Fnrf5_sdk.html

I think I have done things correctly so I am now looking for some ideas/support to move forward please.

Regards MPH

    Hi Martin

    It's quite peculiar that the example advertises and connects, but doesn't show the normal services. 

    Which services do you see when you connect through nRF Connect?

    Are you using nRF Connect for Android, iOS or desktop?

    Can you let me know which model and version of the kit you have, as printed on the white sticker?

    How are you flashing the kit? 
    Are you using nrfjprog, or one of the supported IDE's?

    Best regards
    Torbjørn

    Hi Torbjørn

    I see these services using nRF Connect for Android..

    Generic Access, Generic Attribute, Blood pressure, Battery Service, Device Information.

    White sticker shows..

    PCA10040

    1.2.4

    2018.12

    682351679

    Flashing the kit by dragging and dropping the hex files onto the on-board drive.

    Also have Segger IDE installed and can build & program the project ok from there also.

    Hi Martin

    Sorry for all the requests, but could you also do a log with the "nrfblinky" filter applied, so that only the app messages are shown?

    Best regards
    Torbjørn

    Not sure about the filter but I set up this in logcat...

    and then the debug log was abbreviated to this...

    Might need to advise on the filter, thanks.

    Hi Martin

    Please have a look at the attached screenshot. I simply add nrfblinky in the search field in logcat, setting up a custom filter should not be necessary. 

    Then I can focus on the app related messages easily, and the log doesn't get overflowed with system messages. 

    An interesting observation is that I can reproduce the problem with the LED characteristic. Changing the LED in the app doesn't appear to have any effect on the kit. I need some more time to look into this and discuss it with the developers. 

    To summarize your issues, if you try to use the debugger in Android Studio the app won't even start?

    If you don't use the debugger it works, but you are unable to control the LED?

    Best regards
    Torbjørn

    Hi Torbjørn

    Quick response = Yes your summary is correct in the last mail.
