dejans Thanks. That solves it. Or by building the Zephyr hci_rpmsg sample with that configuration and flashing the network core separately.

Hi,

If you use unmodified Zephyr sample, you could add child_image folder to your project directory. Inside child_image folder, you should add hci_rpmsg.conf file with the following configuration

CONFIG_BT_EXT_ADV=y
CONFIG_BT_CTLR_ADV_EXT=y
CONFIG_BT_PER_ADV=y

Best regards,
Dejan

I suggested it because I had a -5 error with extended advertising yesterday and that solved it. Thinking about it it was probably the adv_set_data call not adv_create that I got the error from.

Steve J Thanks for your reply. I added that line but unfortunately the problem still persists.

Here is the output of the program :

Try adding -

CONFIG_BT_CTLR_ADV_DATA_LEN_MAX=255
