SIM Card Not connected to any device

[chris97]

Hi, 

unfortunatally i could not add a new LTE device. I was able to activate my SIM card but not able to finally add the device to my account. 

The error code is: There was an error adding your device: No device found for this id. The device has not yet been provisioned. Troubleshoot nRF Code 40412 

I checked the id and pin which i entered several times ... nothing worked 

By the way, my SIM Card is already plugged in and LED 3 and LED 5 are on. LED 5 seems to blink a little. 

What shall i do now, i would really like to test a simple application ?

Hi!

Have you done the necessary steps explained in the nRF9160 DK Getting Started Guide? 

-Update application FW
-Update modem FW
-Update nRF Connect for Cloud certificates

You need to do this before trying to connect.

LED3 and LED4 are on and LED 4 seems to blink a little

Here is what the LED*s indicate. LED3 ON and LED4 blinking means it's connecting to nRF Cloud. When both of the LED's start blinking in sync, you can try to add the device. 

Best regards,

Heidi

-Update application FW //successfully done 
-Update modem FW     //successfully done 
-Update nRF Connect for Cloud certificates //successfully done 

The certificate was also successfully updated !

But when i try to add new Device on https://nrfcloud.com/ i always get the error message 

There was an error adding your device: No device found for this id. The device has not yet been provisioned. Troubleshoot nRF Code 40412

I dont know how to fix this 

[Heidi]

What state are the LEDs in when you try to add the device to the website?

Can you open up LTE Link Monitor in nRF Connect for Desktop and take a look at the output log from the device?

Is that enough ? 

[Heidi]

No. Please let it run for more than 10 seconds. 

Also do not copy and paste any logging information in a comment.

Which button ? 

[Heidi]

I'm sorry, the picture didn't seem to upload! It should be there now.

the txt file does not include anything interesting... 

LED5 is constantly on and LED3 is blinking what does this mean ?

Maybe not for you, but I would still like to see it.

LED5 is just the LED for the J-Link on board, it's irrelevant. 

Here is what the LEDs indicate in this application. LED 3 is blinking which means the device is trying to connect to the LTE network.

Have you confirmed that there is LTE-M or NB-IoT coverage in your location and that iBasis supports this local network provider?

I have attached iBasis coverage list for you to take a look at. 

6431.ibasis_Coverage_list.pdf

Please also be aware that for connecting with NB-IoT, you need to flash a different FW than the default one.

lf you are sure of the coverage in your area and your FW, please let your device run for at least fifteen minutes, while you collect a modem trace. See this tutorial for how to collect a modem trace. Then provide me with both the trace and the log file. Please attach the file and do not paste it into your comment.

Please also provide screenshots of your SIM card being activated in nRF Connect for Cloud.
