What was the answer to this (what values to change & to what)? I had a similar problem.

These are my section placement macros (below). I have not changed them at all over the course of this project; I am not currently updating my SDK, I have not made any drastic code changes, and suddenly out of nowhere, I'm getting this error message about multiple load files overlapping.

FLASH_PH_START=0x0

FLASH_PH_SIZE=0x100000

RAM_PH_START=0x20000000

RAM_PH_SIZE=0x40000

FLASH_START=0x22000

FLASH_SIZE=0xde000

RAM_START=0x20002108

RAM_SIZE=0x3def8

and the weirdest thing is sometimes if i just press the "debug > Go" (F5) button over and over again, without changing any code, it just runs. it is like 1 out of 5-10 times that it will run. other times i get the above error.

Hi!

nRF5 SDK v15.0.0 supports S140 SoftDevice v6.0.0, see here. So you don't have to upgrade.

If you take a look at your linker section placement macros, you can see that the FLASH and RAM area overlap which is why you are seeing this error.

However, I'm not completely sure which values you should change and to what, so for an answer to that you'll have to wait until Monday unfortunately. That's when we have more people in the office to answer this.

Best regards,

Heidi

Would like to add one more question regarding this?

Do i have to upgrade the SoftDevice to 7.0.1? or can i stay with 6.0.0 as was in use when i used SDK 15.0?

In any case, the message appears..
