[Sunil vignesh]

Hi,

1.  I have implement DFU example without private key (open bootloader !) . How to implement secure bootloader for NCS .

2.  when i use the DFU with hid_keyboard the Flash storage starts at 0xFE000, and every restart device the DFU* setup alone write 32bytes at every power resets. how to control it

Hey Sunil

1. Please check out the Bootloader and DFU App development page which should take you through how you can create your own either Immutable or Upgradable secure bootloader.

2. It sounds like you're overlapping data for the bootloader and application. I think you have stored the bootloader at this address, and then you're trying to store data from the application over the same addresses. You need to modify where your application stores data to not overlap the DFU region.

Best regards,

Simon

I am unable to debug with bootloader.

and also I have a problem that

the custom board .dts file i have mentioned flash storage at 0xF5000 and assign only 3 pages 0x3000

without bootloader the application runs in 0xF5000 but when added Bootloader address moved to 0xFE000

why and how it is possible.

2. without bootloader i have controlled the multiple times CCCD updates in flash storage and settings pages . but with adding bootloader can't able to debug where the flash is written and not able to control the address start
