Softdevice Not Disabled

[Surya]

Hi,

I am using the following snippet in my application. it is working fine sometimes but the other times it's not coming out of the while loop.

can anybody point out the problem?

while(nrf_sdh_is_enabled())
{
//ble_deinit();
err_code = nrf_sdh_disable_request();
APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);
nrf_delay_ms(5);
testVar12 ++;
}

err_code = nrf_sdh_enable_request();
APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);

Hi,

Please check if you have any SoftDevice state observers  that might potentially deny the NRF_SDH_EVT_DISABLE_REQUEST.

hi,

I am using NRF_SDH_BLE_OBSERVER in my application.  can this also deny NRF_SDH_EVT_DISABLE_REQUEST??

[Vidar Berg]

No, only state observers should be able to reject the SD disable requests.  Does nrf_sdh_disable_request() return NRF_SUCCESS even when the Softdevice did not get disabled?

[Surya]

yes,

nrf_sdh_disable_request() return NRF_SUCCESS even when the Softdevice did not get disabled.

Have you had any progress on this? The state flag is cleared right after sd_softdevice_disable() so there must be something preventing the programming from reaching this line. I suggest placing breakpoints on the return statements above sd_softdevice_disable() in nrf_sdh_disable_request() to see if there are any unexpected returns.
