The zephyr map for the 1.3.1 has no boards subdirectory. It only contains module.yml.

 Are you sure you checked <your NCS folder>/v1.3.1/zephyr, and not <your NCS folder>/v1.3.1/nrf/zephyr?

What is in the secure partition?

 The secure partition is used by the bootloader (MCUBoot) and/or the Secure Partition Manager (SPM).

 

dhandzic said:

The lwm2m_client takes 169.8k Code and 111.2k Data

 Where do you get those numbers from?

You should also note that in NCS, the flash partitioning is not decided by the device tree, but by the Partiion Manager script: https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/1.3.0/nrf/scripts/partition_manager/partition_manager.html

But the actual amount of flash and RAM available is also dependent on if you enable DFU or not.

The lwm2m_client code and data size I get from the SES after the build process, but I am not sure. They are shown in the project explorer pane but memory usage pane does not have any information. If you have other numbers it would be intresting.

[Didrik Rokhaug]

That does not seem right.

The v1.3.1 folder should look like this:

Can you try to "Update SDK"?

If that does not work, you can try to "Open bash", and run "west update"?

If you get any errors, please send them to me.

Looking at the partition scheme creted by the partition manager, the app partition is 0x6ae00 bytes, or 437,760.

When I build from the comman line, I get the following report:

Memory region         Used Size  Region Size  %age Used
           FLASH:      210832 B     437760 B     48.16%
            SRAM:       79160 B       128 KB     60.39%
        IDT_LIST:         136 B         2 KB      6.64%

(it should also be available in the "output" window in SES.

Hi Didrik,

I have tried Update SDK for 1.3.1 from Toolchain Manager without success. I have tried from BASH  west update and also ncsmgr init-ncs but I get errors:

The Output pane in SES does not show memeory usage information after building either.

Hi Didrik,

today I received my nRF9160 DK board and I have the asset tracker running using nrf9160dk_asset_tracker_ltem_2020-04-29_bc7ade8b.hex. Works fine except GPS position even with external antenna and SW12 in CON position and patch antenna near window I dont get GPS readings. Is this part of the LTE-M implementation?
