Hi,
I was testing the various cases for DFU & I was looking for any possible solutions to fix the issue.
I flashed SD + bootloader (secure) + app from SDK 15.2 on the BLE chip. I was able to replace the app firmware file (from SDK 15.2) using nrfconnect.
Then next I was trying to change the firmware to SDK 16, so I created a firmware package using -
nrfutil pkg generate --hw-version 52 --sd-req 0xAF --application-version 2 --application %APPLICATION_HEX% --softdevice %SOFTDEVICE_HEX% --bootloader %BOOTLOADER_HEX% --bootloader-version 2 --sd-id 0xCB --key-file private.pem firmware.zip
Then I provide this zip to nrfconnect and then it starts writing the SD+bootloader .bin & .dat files. When it proceeds to flashing the app .bin & .dat, I turn off the ble device, thus interrupting the dfu. Now the BLE chip is in the bootloader mode & it has no app to jump to. Now I try to input the above zip again which the nrfconnect rejects.
So then I try creating a zip for just the app, excluding SD & bootloader, as follows -
nrfutil pkg generate --application %APPLICATION_HEX% --application-version 2 --application-version-string "2.0.0" --hw-version 52 --sd-req 0xCB --key-file private.pem FW.zip
The nrfconnect rejects this zip too.
Please let me know the solution for this. Thanks.
