Nrf connect v3.3.0 for Mac with nrf9160 -

[Chaahk]

hi

im trying to program my nrf9160 using nRF connect 3.3.0 (with latest programming tool).I have jlink 6.56a installed

ive been occasionally able to wipe the nrf9160 but every time I try to update the firmware on the device it fails with almost endless errors

I assume im doing something wrong somewhere but having followed the instructions im not sure what

latest nrf connect for desktop for Mac, latest jlink code, etc no antivirus installed and it fails. any advise or debug that may help break this down?

Hi Trevor,

Is this related to when you are trying to update the modem firmware or when you are flashing regular applications to the nrf9160`?

Could you provide the log output of the errors you are seeing?

Please check which nrfjprog version you are using as well:

Best regards,

Martin L.
