nrfjprog --recover fails: Recover failed. Please make sure that the correct device family is given and try again.

I am currently using an external JLINK to program the 9160 module, after adding read protection. Unable to recover using nrfjprog, report the following error:

ERROR: Recover failed. Please make sure that the correct device family is given and try again.

  • Could you please try nrfjprog --recover -f NRF91 --logand attach the log here?

    Same phenomenon

    Could you also try the solution posted in this case (but change nfr52 to nrf91 in the script)? 

    I think this is a bug. Performing nrfjprog --recover after nrfjprog --reset will trigger an unrecoverable bug, which can be recovered after reopening the command line window or powering off the module. Can you guys try to solve this bug?

    The problem can be reproduced on thingy91. What I burned is the program of at_client, after executing nrfjprog --reset, thingy91 will light up red and green lights. The recovery operation cannot be performed when the light is on.
