Bluetooth Low Energy Serial Communication

For Arduino questions you'd have to ask on the Arduino forums.

Note that nRFGo is long out of date - use nRF Connect instead. Or a J-Link or other programmer directly.

Android App programming is a whole separate ballpark ...

thanks for the response but I'm still at a crossroads. I'm using Arduino to program my board and then using the serial.write() command. The example suggest using either Keil, nRFgo to reflash my softdevice (S140). Is there another way to do serial communication using the Arduino IDE and the serial.write() as I am unfamiliar with the suggested way to do serial. I'm not new at programming (20 years C, C++, C#, html, etc..) but am a neophyte with respect to Bluetooth, ble and android app programming.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Indeed:

Won't work - it must be BLE.

At the Android end?
