Hi,

[quote user=""]I have tried all the solutions that I could find on the already available asked questions, example https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/88961/private-bluetooth-address/372731[/quote]

The set_bt_addr() function did not work for you? Did you get any error codes?

    uint8_t mac[6];
    mac[0] = (((NRF_FICR->DEVICEADDR1) >>  8) & 0xFF) | 0xC0;
    mac[1] = (((NRF_FICR->DEVICEADDR1)      ) & 0xFF);
    mac[2] = (((NRF_FICR->DEVICEADDR0) >> 24) & 0xFF);
    mac[3] = (((NRF_FICR->DEVICEADDR0) >> 16) & 0xFF);
    mac[4] = (((NRF_FICR->DEVICEADDR0) >>  8) & 0xFF);
    mac[5] = (((NRF_FICR->DEVICEADDR0)      ) & 0xFF);
