nRF52 DK BLE Examples not working

[louellgat]

Hello,

I am new in using Nordic MCUs and BLE. I am trying to flash the experimental_ble_app_blinky example on KEIL on my nRF52 PCA10040 board and the android application doesn't detect the board. I tried every ble examples and nothing is working. 

I installed every packs related to nRF52

Tried to flash this and the nRF Blinky app on android is not detecting the board after flash.

Did you follow:

In specific:

You should not use packs, but download SDK v15.3 from here:
