@Diogo: Could you send your code ? How big is the buffer you used?

So the first time that app_uart_init is called, it only sends one byte. If I put the code in a while(1) cycle it sends the data. If I put a while(1) after the first app_uart_init only one byte is sent. The second time the app_uart_init is called (by nordic's dfu example) it actually works. I also tried to use app_uart_close before the second init and the same thing happens.

I found that after the first byte is sent (app_uart_put), I get a APP_UART_TX_EMPTY, but it won't work after that.

@Diogo: The SDK v8.0 was not made for and not tested on Rev2 chip.

What you need to do is to follow and implement the PANs' workaround for rev 2 chip. You should be fine. Also please make sure you follows the instruction in the release note for S110 v8.0 when working on Rev 2 chip.

Regarding your issue, I guess you may want debug a little bit deeper, to see what would be wrong. I think it could be something with the setup of the app uart, did you call app_uart_init twice ?
