DFU on one button device

I see, thanks. I suggest that you step through the dfu_enter_check() function to see where 'true' is being returned if you want to debug this further. Maybe the gpregret flag wasn't cleared?

Well, I use the same button for entering the DFU and for waking up the device. The device should only go into DFU mode if the restart was caused by a power cycle. In order to distinguish the restart after deep sleep from a power cycle I check RESETREAS in the bootloader.

Hi,

Not sure I understand why it helps to check the RESTETREAS register helps. Do you have PINRESET enabled on this pin?

No. I power down from the app. I managed to get something working by reading RESETREAS like this:

uint32_t reset_reason;
reset_reason = NRF_POWER->RESETREAS;
NRF_POWER->RESETREAS = 0x00000000;

// if not power cycle
if (reset_reason > 0) {
    nrf_bootloader_app_start();
} else {
    err_code = nrf_bootloader_init(dfu_observer);
    APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);
}

Hi,

[quote user=""]This post (https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/33507/bootloader-deep-sleep/128954#128954) talks very briefly about "disabling the BOOTLOADER_BUTTON", but it's unclear to me how to do that, and still retain the wake functionality. [/quote]

Do you enter system OFF from the bootloader code? The BOOTLOADER_BUTTON is not directly tied to the wake-up functionality, but it will initialize the pin to input with sense enabled, see nrf_bootloader::dfu_enter_button_init().

sdk_config.h settings if you use SDK 15.3.0:
