Hi Edvin,

Thanks for the support. Perhaps I need to upload the original thingy application to the thingy board.

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,

Edvin
