After preforming a DFU with the nrf connect app (ios) the device advertises and will "connect" with the nrf connect app, but its not actually connected which is evidence by going to my settings and trying to pair the device. In which case I get an unable to pair message. The only way I've found to fix this is by erase + flash the device.
Is there a configuration I have to set somewhere as to store bonding data (using NRF Connect/VS code)?
