RE: nrf9160 - NVS read/write error code 22

I can't verify if the full erase would resolve the issue since it seems to be fixed now.

I am thinking it is related to the sector_count + size definitions since I was defining the sector_count = 7 and the sector_size is 4096 with the offset being at 0x000FA000 (limit being 0x000FF000). I was pointed down this path from this post and am guessing that the issue I was seeing was the address I was trying read/write from was on a sector that was out of the address range.

This would cause an error which happened to be -22 and would explain why the sample application worked, it was only using 3 sectors and they would be within the allowed range and accessing the IDs that were out of the sector range, updated them to be within the right address space.

Does this seem probable as to what was happening?

Good to hear that it now works, I don't know why there initially was an issue no. Maybe do a full erase (e.g. nrfjprog --eraseall --coprocessor CP_APPLICATION) of the application and check that it is indeed resolved?
