Problem adding Thingy:91 in the nRF Cloud

[T1mS_]

Hello,

I try to add a Thingy:91 to the nRF Cloud after I received it today. The sim card got's activated without a problem. When I try to key in my IMEI and the Pin which is printed on the label I receive this error: "There was an error adding your device. It wasn't found. Is it connected?"

How to solve this and add the device to my account?

Hi! 

Can you confirm that the Thingy:91 is on and the LED is blue and blinking.

Best regards,

Heidi

Hi Heidi, 

I think it is more like a blue-withe breathing in a two seconds on and around 5 seconds off interval.

I updated the certificate with the LTE Link Monitor. 

I still get the same error:

cloud_connect failed: -111

Is there a way to switch between LTE-M and NB-IOT on the modem?

[T1mS_]

So, I'm able to connect to the network, but I can't reach your cloud. What could be the reason for this?

Is it possible the connection to your nRFCloud is blocked by my provider?

[Heidi-Irene Harvey Sollie]

If you still get the error, it's possible you haven't actually updated your certificates. 

Could you please describe to me step by step how you did it?

 Yes,  AT%XSYSTEMMODE sets the supported system modes of the modem, and you can also set the LTE preference of the modem.

This is highly unlikely, but you will have to check this with your provider. However, error code -111 means you have run out of data or you're missing certificates.

I just did these following steps again:

1. download at_client.hex and the modem certificate
2. connect thingy:91 to the jlink device
3. flash at_client.hex to device
4. open LTE Link Monitor
5. extract the json file from the downloadet zip
6. turn thingy:91 on, choose correct com port and send AT+CFUN=4.
7. switch to "certificate manager" tab, press "load from json", choose extracted json file.
8. Press "Update certificates". This is the log:

9. Now I get this using the AT%CMNG=1: (Last time I didn't got this result...)

   OK

What is the next step I should do? :)

Excellent! Now you just have to flash the asset_tracker example and it should work!

 asset_tracker.hex

[T1mS_]

FLashed this to the thingy:91. Is it supposed to do anything? There is no LED now, now serial output. Nothing. :D

I reflashed the hex file, I restarted my pc, nothing helps.

[Heidi-Irene Harvey Sollie]

Do you still get the same error message?

[T1mS_]

Right after the flashing I get a red LED from the thingy:91. after turning it off and on again I get nothing. No error, no serial output at all.

[Heidi-Irene Harvey Sollie]

Hi, sorry, could you try flashing the NB-IoT version instead.
