Try: https://www.nordicsemi.com/Software-and-Tools/Development-Tools/nRF5-Command-Line-Tools

You need to connect GND, VDD, SWDIO and SWDCLK to program the board. (And GND_DETECT to GND if you are using a nRF51-DK as programmer).

Make sure that VDD voltage is supported by the programmer (e.g. 3 - 3.3V if you are using a nRF51-DK as programmer).

You don't need to use nRFgo Studio, you may use the command line instead to program both softdevice and application. It is the same command for both, example:

In your case it will be:

nrfjprog --eraseall

nrfjprog --program softdevice.hex --sectorerase
nrfjprog --program application.hex --sectorerase

Sounds to me that you may have setup the project wrong or have mixed wrong softdevice binary with the SDK example. If done correctly there should be no overlap in memory (flash) between the two, however if you compile the projects with the wrong compiler settings or wrong softdevice, then you may get such problem. Have you followed the getting started in the sdk on how to compile and program one of the BLE examples as-is?

Best regards,
