https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/79486/dfu-without-using-serialHi, I have multiple devices that support Nordic DFU. I want to update them using a Linux computer with a bluetooth dongle connected on it (and its not a Nordic Device). I know that the DFU process use GATT characteristics.

It is the .dat file within the zip. This can be used regardless of how you transfer the image to the nRF.</p> <p>Using nrfutil as DFU master only works with a connected nRF development kit or dongle, and Nordic does nor provide any DFU master implementations that can use the native BLE support for desktop systems (it is provided for mobile OSs though), so you need to implement this yourself or use a thirdparty project, such as <a href="https://github.com/infsoft-locaware/nrfdfu">this</a>.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
