nRF Connect & VS Code Extension Display CONNECTED DEVICE as UNKNOWN

[Himansu]

Hi,

I am using VS Code with nRF Connect Extension and facing a device detection issue. This is working fine but starts an issue after updating the latest nRF Connect Extention before three days. I follow below step but my issue is not resolved:

 (+) vscode nrf Connect no devices found - Nordic Q&A - Nordic DevZone - Nordic DevZone (nordicsemi.com)

Due to this problem, I am not able to do flash or reset the board or recover the board.

I have updated the latest nRF Command line tool and nRF Connect SDK and Programmer.

Hardware: (Both Hardware Display UNKNOWN Connect Device)

1. nRF52840-DK

2. J-Link EDU Mini + RAK4630 Core Board

Programmer: 3.0.8 Log (Same Message Display for Both Hardware)

Hi,

Maybe it's not directly your problem but I am using nrf52DK (nrf52832) and latest version of nRF Connect for VS Code v2023.4.179 has some bug. After when I downgrade version this extention my development board worked today.

regards
