  • Hi, I am working in direction finding with phase shift value in Bluetooth5.1,but not getting how to find particular direction of the signal can you please guide me in that.

  • Hello,

    I am using "nRFConnect1.5.1 SDK with nrf5340" . I want to use NVS storage system with Partition Manager. I tried nvs sample given in path "ncs/zephyr/samples/subsys/nvs"  which doesn't use Partition Manager i.e "USE_PARTITION_MANAGER=0"  and it is working fine. 

    In my application , I am using "multi-image builds" using Partition Manager.  When I tried use same nvs sample code in my application it gives me the error below .

    [1;31m<err> flash_nrf: invalid address: 0x00100ff8:8

    I found below note: 

    When you build a multi-image application using the Partition Manager, the Device Tree Source flash partitions are ignored.

    I am confuse where I need to define storage partition while using "Partition Manager".

    I did below configuration , still is not working;

    zephyr/.config:1625:CONFIG_NVS=y
    zephyr/.config:1626:# CONFIG_NVS_LOG_LEVEL_OFF is not set
    zephyr/.config:1627:# CONFIG_NVS_LOG_LEVEL_ERR is not set
    zephyr/.config:1628:# CONFIG_NVS_LOG_LEVEL_WRN is not set
    zephyr/.config:1629:# CONFIG_NVS_LOG_LEVEL_INF is not set
    zephyr/.config:1630:CONFIG_NVS_LOG_LEVEL_DBG=y
    zephyr/.config:1631:CONFIG_NVS_LOG_LEVEL=4
    zephyr/.config:1867:CONFIG_SETTINGS_NVS=y
    zephyr/.config:1870:CONFIG_SETTINGS_NVS_SECTOR_SIZE_MULT=1
    zephyr/.config:1871:CONFIG_SETTINGS_NVS_SECTOR_COUNT=8

    Please help me. 

  • [SOLVED] usb genenic HID keeps appearing as mouse

    I took the usbd_hid_generic example and replaced the mouse functionality by consumer device control functionality.

    (volume up/down, play/pause etc). Then I flashed this modified example on a 52840 dongle and put it into my Windows laptop. No matter what I tried, it kept appearing as non-functional mouse. It took quite some time to realize: Windows remembers the device!

    When I changed ProductID it was finally recognized as consumer device control - and then I found

    "...Open Device Manager and click View > Show hidden devices. You will now see every USB drive or SD card that Windows knows about, whether currently connected or not, listed under Disk drives. Right-click on one to uninstal it."

    thought I'd share this
