OK, I'll give that a try. Thanks!

As far as I can see in our SDK we usually change mode when the previous mode has timed out. If you want to change mode while advertising is ongoing you could consider stopping it first. An example would be the "ble_advertising_restart_without_whitelist" function in ble_advertising.c

Thanks for the suggestion! I have just migrated to SDK 15.2.0, and that new API call may be useful to me in the future. However, at the moment I'm not trying to update the advertising data. I want to continue advertising with the same data, but to transition from _MODE_SLOW to _MODE_FAST.

Is that 15.0 or 15.2 ?

Hi,

In sdk 15.2. there is a function called ble_advertising_advdata_update that you could use to update the advdata. This function is just calling sd_ble_gap_adv_set_configure to update the advertisement set.
