Still works with SDK 16 on USB Dongle nRF52840 (pca10059).

Yes, the ble_app_uart_s110_pca10028 example uses BLE_GAP_ADV_FLAGS_LE_ONLY_LIMITED_DISC_MODE. Thanks for the note about BLE_GAP_ADV_FLAGS_LE_ONLY_GENERAL_DISC_MODE

Are you using directed advertising? If you have BLE_GAP_ADV_FLAGS_LE_ONLY_LIMITED_DISC_MODE flag added to advertising parameters, then you can't set timeout any higher than 180. Higher advertising timeouts only work on general discovery mode i.e. BLE_GAP_ADV_FLAGS_LE_ONLY_GENERAL_DISC_MODE. In SDK 8.0 there is also a bug in the code, which prevents you to set infinite timeout, therefore, you have to either set the timeout to some high number or restart advertising after timeout.

I am able to use a timeout of 0 (infinite) on SDK9 with SD8. I used to restart adv on idle event until I was able to set the timeout to 0.

I spent a while trying to get this working and only now that I've posted the question, other questions have been helpful

devzone.nordicsemi.com/.../

Setting the define APP_ADV_TIMEOUT_IN_SECONDS to 0 or any number larger than 180 didn't work for me - rejected by the library call.

Instead restarting advertising on BLE_ADV_EVT_IDLE looks to be working (by calling ble_advertising_start(BLE_ADV_MODE_FAST) )
