I purchased a 5340DK (not SDK) and it looks like it's working.

Thank you. Incidentally, it looks like executing commands through nrfjprog works (for instance, I can clear flash using nrfjprog but not with SES). I can also load code onto the network core with SES without any trouble.

Is there an nrfjprog command to flash selective cores (specifically the app core) on the 5340PDK?

If you have any issue with the nRF5340-DK then try this:

Just to be clear, I am currently using SDK v1.6.1. In any case, I ordered an nRF5340DK, hopefully it works.

I think developing on a preview sample is not a good idea, in addition using a rather old sdk means that you are not using a qualified softdevice:

Please order a new nRF5340-DK as soon as possible.

It's definitely a PDK and not a DK (version 0.8.0). I'm assuming that this means I need to revert to SDK v1.4.0?

Hello,

Please see:
https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/latest/nrf/ug_nrf5340.html

"The nRF5340 PDK has been deprecated with the introduction of the production-level nRF5340 DK. To determine if you have a PDK or DK, check the version number on the sticker on your kit. If the version is 0.11.0 or higher, the kit is an nRF5340 DK."

Best regards,
Kenneth
