Hi.

Try to add anther nrf9160_pca10090.overlay (not ns) in ncs/mcuboot/boot/zephyr as well.

Best regards,

Didrik

I probed all the pins on the DK (P.010, P0.11, P0.12, P0.13) and none of them show any indication of them being configured improperly. They all seem to be at the correct potential. It seems that the nRF9160 just isn’t outputting anything.

I also tried connecting via the nRF Connect program just to make sure the VCOM ports weren’t taking over, but nothing is output there either.

I’ve previously used these same pins and same overlay file to setup and run the UART example. So I’m thinking it’s something in the conf file that's causing the issue but I’m not sure what.

Hi Bjorn,

Yes, I deleted the build folder and reopened the project each time I made a change. The changes I made were reflected in the dts_compiled file.

Have you remembered to open a new build folder after you made changes in the project configuration. Also when you added the overlay files. Make the changes & then open a new example project & just change the build folder from build to build1 for example. This oftentimes solves the problem.

Also, could you check to make sure that the changes you made are noticeable in this file: nrf\applications\asset_tracker\build1\zephyrnrf9160_pca10090ns.dts_compiled (i.e. the dts_compiled file inside your build folder of your own example).
