DFU problem Android

[Cedd70]

Hello,

I work with NRF52832 evaluation board.

SDK 17.1.0

I try to implémente DFU -> pca10040_s132_ble / pca10040_s132_ble_debug.

Applicatif is : ble_app_buttonless_dfu

No code modification (only key), I run with exemple code. I use same DFU pakage for all Device.

Works fine with :

• NRFconnect  IOS Iphone XR and Ipad
• NRFconnect Desktop
• NRFconnect Sony Xperia (E5823) Android 7.1.1

Not work with :  

• Galaxy tab A8 Android 11

Log DFU with Galaxy tab A8 :

Hello,

You seem to be experiencing the same issue discussed in this thread: https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/88202/dfu-error-unable-to-write-op-code-3-error-133/ that is still under investigation. I suspect it may be caused by some interoperability with this particular tablet/chipset and that we will need to get hold of the same tablet here to reproduce it on our side. I will discuss the issue with my colleague who had the other case and get back to you.

Best regards,

Vidar

Thank you for your answer, bad news .. 

To add :

Works fine with :

• NRFconnect IOS Iphone XR and Ipad
• NRFconnect Desktop
• NRFconnect Sony Xperia (E5823) Android 7.1.1
• NRFconnect Samsung S6 lite (tablette)
• NRFconnect Samsung S21+

Not work with :  

• Galaxy tab A8 Android 11
• Xiaomi Mi 9

Maybe it's a same Bluetooth controller ? 

[Vidar Berg]

Interesting. From the logs, do you notice any difference between Xiaomi and Samsung in how/when they fail dfu?

Maybe it's a same Bluetooth controller ? 

The Xiaomi device appears to come with a different chipset, so I guess the controller is different as well. Anyway. We are going to order the Samsung tab to see if we can reproduce the issue here. It will probably take a few days for us to receive it.

[Cedd70]

Good news, I am looking forward to.

I can't get the logs for Xiamoi, it was my client who did the test.

Yes the SOC is different, but the Bluetooth chipset we don't know.
