This is correct. If you want to get started with the nRF9160, I would recommend you to download nRF Connect for Desktop & download the nRF Getting Started Assistant. Snapshot from the Getting Started Assistant below:

I believe it's this: https://github.com/NordicPlayground

My example and folder structure was from the "fw-nrfconnect-nrf" repo to be exact. So: https://github.com/NordicPlayground/fw-nrfconnect-nrf

Thanks! Great catch, I didn't see that when I posted that. I edited my post to make it a perfect answer. ;)

Almost a perfect answer! One quick comment though ;) You want to download version 7-2018-q2-update of the armemb toolchain from this link here. There is a bug with v8 that has already been reported & should hopefully be fixed soon.

It was technically answered by Bjorn with link2 (I believe). I had the exact same problem. You want to compile and load the Secure Boot project and program that as the MBR for the device. I don't think they share this anywhere on the web you probably need to compile it yourself. I tried to attach it to this message.

It's in the GIT repo here: nrf\samples\nrf9160\secure_boot. If you loaded the nRF Connect Getting Started app, you have to follow those directions and the arm cross compiler you need to get the slightly older version (you don't want Version 8-2018-q4, you want Version 7-2018-q2). Then build it.

After that you can install any other application and it should run. The nRF connect programmer allows you to add multiple HEX files to program at once.

These two links should also be helpful: link 1, link 2.

Board controller firmware is for nrf52840. Which controls analogue switch that routes nRF9160 gpio to LEDs and Buttons and other peripheral.

If you erased Board controller firmware from nrf52840 than reload it and load asset_tracker sample application to nRF9160 which was preconfigured.
