BLE app beacon example not executing

I'm glad you got it working now! The SDK I uploaded is just a version of the original SDK v17.0.0 where I followed the Patching nRF5 SDK v17.0.0 to support the nRF52805 and Creating an emulated project for the nRF52805 on the nRF52 DK sections in my colleague Bjørn's guide. I assume that you missed a step in your effort to patch the SDK, so I did it here on my side to make sure the guide was working. No issue in the SDK. If you are satisfied with the reply, please verify the answer you found helpful in order to help forum users in the future having the same problem.

Best regards,

Simon

Thank you for the updated SDK Simon. It works fine on both the NRF52DK and nrf52805 chip (steps under "Transferring an emulated project to nRF52805 hardware" need to be performed".

What was the issue in the previous SDK?

In the attached folder, I have uploaded a folder containing a modified version of the nRF5_SDK v17.0.0 with an example of the pca10040e project modified to work as an emulated nRF52805 project tested to work on the nRF52832 DK. I don't have nRF52805 HW to test this on at the moment, but it should be able to transfer an emulated project to nRF52805 as well if you follow the instructions.

Yes, I programmed with the softdevice (s112_nrf52_7.0.1_softdevice.hex) from nRF5_SDK_17.0.0_9d13099\components\softdevice\s112\hex before I programmed the app beacon as mentioned in my post. No use.

I have set LF clock to RC as I do not have external 32khz crystals.

The ble_app_beacon_pca10040e_s112_flash_s112_nrf52_7.0.1_softdevice.hex is not just the SoftDevice I think, but rather the nRF52810 beacon example including the SoftDevice. Please try flashing the .hex file located in \SDK\nRF5_SDK_17.0.0_9d13099\components\softdevice\s112\hex before flashing the application code onto the device.

You will also need the internal LF clock configurations you mention when running the example on your nRF52805 HW.

Best regards,

Simon
