Hope this helps

Hi,

USB HID generic and USB HID mouse can be found here.

Do you wish to do DFU over USB, UART or BLE ?

I don't think I quite understand what you want to do. Can you maybe write your answer in both English and original language?

Jonathan

Now, I finish the application coding with usb_hid_generic and usb_hid_mouse.I want to use the usb_hid_generic as dfu,so what I am amazing is how to locate the usb_hid_generic and the usb_hid_mouse,and even how to coding them in a normal way?

Hi,

Can you elaborate on what you mean or what you want to achieve?

nRF5 SDK 17.0.2 ? Soft device ?

Do you want to have custom bootloader or are we talking about memory sections ?
