Custom board configuration causes runtime error, "E: Device id 00 00 00 does not match config ef 40 14"

[zsvtmml]

Our project was previously functional when we were developing using the nrf52840dk_nrf52840 with an overlay to reconfigure for our custom pcba. We created a custom board config using the "Create a new board" thing in  nRF Connect. After adding a bunch of apparently missing CONFIGs in <custom_pcba_name>_defconfig, and copying all the dts stuff over form zephyr/boads/arm/nrf52840dk_nrf52840 the project builds, but fails in runtime with following output to the console:

Any help on how to fix this would me much appreciated.

Thank you.

Hi, I see that you have another thread created that says that you have issues initializing BLE. 

Are these two unrelated or you have solved this to move ahead to that issue?

Hi Susheel,

Thank you for getting back.

This and the other case are related in that all of these runtime errors appears after we migrated the project to a custom pcba, rather than using an nrf52840dk_nrf52840 with overlay. So this case is definitely not resolved or superseded by the other (Case ID: 299733). I submitted this as a separate case because it is clear that bt_conn_cb_register and bt_enable are failing in the other instance, but I don't know what is throwing this Device id error.

Susheel,

Can you please take a look at this case?

Thank you.

Hi Matthew, Sorry for the delay, I was in a training yesterday and could not look into this case.

Can you please attach your project with the custom board files so that I can give it a try to debug why you see that message. It must be a configuration issue which we will try to find and correct.

Susheel,

I think it better that we continue this in a private case so that I can attach a project. I will close this one and open a private case.

Thank you.
