RE: nRF52840 Dongle advertising

[quote userid="92436" url="~/f/nordic-q-a/64495/nrf52840-dongle-advertising/263028"]I made a few changes to use it with the pca10059. Because the template is for 10056. Might that be a problem[/quote]

Certainly it could!

Have you had it working on the Dev Kit (PCA10056) before moving to the Dongle (PCA10059) ?

If not, I would strongly recommend that you do!
