nRF52832 nordic thingy not bootup after flashing application compatible with nRF52832 DK

manish_tyagi

Hi, 

Thanks for the help. I have run the proximity detection application in nRF52832 nordic thingy. Initially the LED was blinking in the thingy board but when I switched OFF and ON the power button the LED was OFF. I have programmed the sample from Nordic Infocenter  for nRF52832 DK. Please help me out if I need to flash the firmware again or any alternative to get my thingy board power ON again. For your reference I have checked the battery status.

    Hello,

    If the power switch is in the ON position, then the board should be powered. If you suspect that the battery is out, leave the power switch ON and plug in the USB cable for power.

    The fact that the LED is off doesn't mean that the board isn't powered. Is your application made for the Thingy HW? You can't take any nRF52DK application and expect it to run on the thingy without modifications. Have you tried to debug the application? Does it seem to be running? Have you tried to upload the original Thingy application on the Thingy again? Is that running?

    Have you removed the bootloader on the Thingy? It may be rejecting your application.

    You need to debug and check whether the application is running or not. Perhaps the error handler is catching something?

    If you are manually programming it, please remove the bootloader by using "nrfjprog -e" (requires nRF Command Line Tools)

    Also remember to upload the correct softdevice to the thingy. That would be the same softdevice that you were using when you ran your application on the nRF52832 DK.

    Best regards,
