Zephyr on custom board based on the QIAA layout.

[Ibrahimk]

Hello everyone,

I have a custom board based on the QIAA layout, when i try to flash the bluetooth beacon example from the zephyr samples directory, the board does not advertise at all(the board also doesn't work with other examples either). testing the same example on a similar board such as the nrf52840_pca10059 dongle, the application works perfectly.

please note that when using examples from the NRF5 SDK to flash this custom board, they work fine with no problem.

I'm flashing this board with the bootloader option set to n as it does not have one.

any help on how to progress from here is really appreciated

I'm sorry but nRF Connect SDK does not support nRF52840, only nRF9160. To use Zephyr samples on nRF52 series, please follow this guide. More information can be found in this link, and as stated in the bottom of the page: "Also if you want to get involved with Zephyr, or simply need help as a user, you can join the Zephyr mailing list or join the #zephyrproject IRC channel."

Nordic Semiconductor is part of the Zephyr Project and contributes with misc. components/software, but we do not give support for Zephyr running on nRF52840.  

Thanks for your understanding. 

Best regards,

Simon
