RE: I don't get how to install the nRF52 SDK.

Unless I have misunderstood things the answer to your question is answered, as @harsha says, in Etan's thread. I'll try to elaborate:

As Petter Myhre says in Etan's thread:

The nRF52 SDK only comes as a zip, it doesn't have pack support yet. So you don't install the actual SDK. You just unzip, and then open a project by navigating the folder structure. To open for example ble_app_hrs you open the project file in examples\ble_peripheral\ble_app_hrs\pca10036\s132\arm5_no_packs

If you installed MDK Version 5 Microcontroller Development Kit you also need to install Device Family Pack 8.0.3. You can find it here. You install it by selecting Pack Installer in Keil and then File->Import

This means that you download the nRF52_SDK_0.9.1_3639cc9.zip-file and then simply unpack it to a folder of your own choise on your hard drive. There is no .exe or .msi installers file that needs to be executed. The SDK is simply bunch of folders with .c and .h files.

Before you can run an example though, Keil needs to know a few details about the nRF52 and that is why you will need to install the Device Family Pack, NordicSemiconductor.nRF_DeviceFamilyPack.8.0.3.pack, that Petter is talking about. Follow Petter's instructions and you should be up and running.

I don't think that etans question is responded. There are two answers. In the first answer the nordic employee explain how to open examples. But it isn't explained how to install the SDK. In the second answer it is refered to set up your nRF52 development kit. But this link don't help to install the SDK.

The solution to this issue is also mentioned in Etans question. Where are you struck?
