nRF9160 firmware

[Ahmed Awad]

Hello 

My nRF9160 DK was working fine and it had certificates for AWS cloud. I wanted to update these certificates so I did it but every thing went wrong. Therefore i erased the nRF9160 dk hex file using programmer and i updated cellular modem also i didn't work then i toggled SW5 to nRF52 and i flashed hello world in it , then updated modem and hex file for nRF9160. ALSO did not work. there is no COM port at all. please help me in this issue. Thank you

Hi,

Please download the latest nrfjprog version..

Then download the precompiled firmware (.zip) and the nrf52boardcontroller for the DK.

Put the switch on the DK to nrf52 and flash the board controller.
Then put the switch to nRF91 and flash the modem firmware.

Then you can flash the application, for example the Asset Tracker sample.

Best regards,
martin L.

When flashing the Asset tracker to the nrf9160 do you see any LEDs flash?

Could you open the device manager and see if the computer recognizes all the COM ports there?*

Please verify that you did the steps correctly:
Application --> https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/index.jsp?topic=%2Fug_nrf91_dk_gsg%2FUG%2Fnrf91_DK_gsg%2Fupdating_application_firmware.html

Modem --> https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/index.jsp?topic=%2Fug_nrf91_dk_gsg%2FUG%2Fnrf91_DK_gsg%2Fupdating_modem_firmware.html

Boardcontroller file is the same approach as "application", but with the switch on the DK set to nRF52.
