Hi Øyvind,

Any news regarding this bug?

Flashing using west works everytime...

But when building and flashing / erasing with SES 4.42A it always needs two attempts.

Failing every second attempt with.

Timeout while preparing target, RAMCode did not respond in time. (PC = 0x00000000, CPSR = 0x00000000, LR = 0x21000003)!

No, this is correct.

Regarding my previous message, please disregard it. You are absolutely correct that it works. Will forward it to our R&D team. Kudos to you my friend! :)

Kind regards,
Øyvind

Hi Øyvind,

nrfjprog -v returns the following:

nrfjprog version: 10.6.0
JLinkARM.dll version: 6.54c

Although I'm suspect of the relevance to this issue as I installed nRF command line tools after encountering this issue. Am I perhaps looking at the wrong nRF Command Line Tools?

Regards,

Thom

Hello Thom,

Please do not hold reset, as this will not program the device at all. There is a know issue with SES v4.42a that we are currently working with a solution for. What version of nRF Command Line tools are you running?

Kind regards,
Øyvind
