nrf52840 dongle alway boot in dfu

[nicolasp]

Tried to flash ncp .hex for pca10059 on a brand new dongle and now it is stuck in dfu (pulsing red led). The process worked on a second dongle without any issues.

Something is wrong with the dongle?

Hi

The system report looks fine. Any luck recovering the Dongle? Could you upload the log file when you try to flash it using the nRFConnect programmer as well? 

Best regards,

Simon
