SoftDeviceAPI v5 problems

[raffaeler]

I am using nRFConnect with nRF52840 Dongle. Since the last update to SoftDeviceAPI v5, nRFConnect cannot connect anymore to this specific devices (cheap JDY-10 BT/Serial adapters). Here there are more details and logs:
github.com/.../161

Sometimes the device cannot be even discovered, then I remove the USB dongle re-insert it and the scan finally find it, but still cannot connected.
As I wrote on GitHub, the device can be always found and connected if I use the Android App BLE Scanner.

I am not sure how can I help in diagnosing the issue.

The Samsung device is a TV from the neighbothood I don't have access to. I have no idea why it scans continuously but that's it.
In the first trace (maybe in another one, but I can't remember now) I can see the mac address of my device. It is the one I wrote in my previous post.
I didn't filter at all, but I am not sure the Adafruit nRF51822 (v2, the black PCB) has the very latest firmware. I could not find a clear explanation on (and if it can) upgrading it.
Try to take a look at the trace including that mac address and see if, in your experience, there is some packet with strange content.

As I already told you, this is happening because of the SoftDevice API v5. Before that upgrade it always worked well.

Hi,

Again sorry for the delays, we are entering summer vacation season in Norway.

I am afraid I did not find anything wrong in the traces, apart from the fact that there is no packets indicating any attempt to set up a BLE connection (in any of them.)

If this worked well in an earlier version of pc-ble-driver, could you possibly get a trace from that as well, as that would make it easier to spot any changes?
