Hi,
I am using nRF52840 Preview DK with SDK v15.3.0 and Softdevice version 6.1.1
I modified the Blinky peripheral code to advertise over Coded Phy, this code is working fine on our custom board with Engineering C chip.
but, when I put the same code on Preview DK with Engineering A chip, it stops advertising. I have checked in debugging mode, it doesn't crash or hang. what could be the reason ?
here is the entire code.
