Great！Space is the root cause. So, no matter what OS, the file name could not include it, right?

Thanks for your support again.

@Jimlin: The problem is with your file name. If you remove space in the file name, you should be fine.

ble_app_uart alpha V1.0.hex

the problem is still on the way. It is OK with the V1.6 on iOS, the same HEX file.

Maybe the compability of different phone ? My is Mi.

@Jimlin: please make sure you select Application instead of Distribution packet (ZIP) when you click Select File. Also after you select the file, please select NO when asked for Init packet.

The bootloader from SDK v6.0 doesn't require init packet.

If the issue remain, please upload your application hex file (by editting the answer)

Could not access. I update to V1.12 from another market but found it was the same as before, HEX file invalid, like the attached picture. Bootloader and the application both based on SDK 6.0 with softdevice 7.0. No such appearence on the windows PC side with pca10001 dongle.

@Hung Bui Thanks for remind. But I could not find the download link of nRF Toolbox for BLE V1.12 on the nodicsemi .com. It's so sad that it could not login in the google play in China for some reasons. Is there any link to download the latest APK in your website? Or could you send me? I prefer the first and could update it in the future in time.

@Jimlin: nRF Toolbox current version is 1.12. Could you update with latest version ?

If you use bootloader from SDK v6.x you wouldn't need to select the init file. If you use bootloader from SDK v7.x and up, you would need to select the init file.

You would need to match the softdevice with the softdevice required for the application image.

I would suggest you to use bootloader from newer SDK, SDK v6.0 is pretty old.
