    Excellent news, I have loaded the latest hex and my app is running. The only thing I am noticing at the moment is that I am getting occasional UART_OVERFLOW errors with serial to the BG96 and so commands are getting corrupted

    I needed to figure out how to create a custom build yesterday (for the first time) and noticed it was down also. I needed to remove/add some libs to MDBT42Q.

    But what I found is that it is real easy to do these builds, @Gordon has made the process real easy to make the build process work at https://github.com/espruino/Espruino/blo­b/master/README_Building.md

    Took me hour or so to create a custom MDBT42Q build without any prior knowledge - I just used the Ubuntu you can fire up in Windows.

    Just for anyone who had not had a go at this.

    @Gordon but I am now having an issue where I am getting BLE error 0x6 and BLE error 0x8 with setScan() ? This is the same code I am running fine on nrf52832 hardware. Any thoughts ?

    OK it looks like my BG96 got shipped to me still in a factory test mode - so once I got out of that things are working again !

    @Gordon I am having problems with the BG96 not accepting some AT commands eg AT+CFUN=1 and AT+CFUN? returns 5 which is not even a documented state. It seems like it is in some non-active state.

    I wondered if it is in airplane mode (LTE_WDISABLE pin) - had a quick look but that seemed OK. Did you manage to check if the BG96 was actually working ? I am just not sure if my BG96 has an issue or whether some of the signals from nrf are not in the correct state ?

    nrf52840 has so much flash, would be good to have more allocated to Storage region, as that would be good place to store remote software updates

    Is the flash_code_start in the correct place at 966656 ?

    On the MDBT42 I use the space between flash_binary_end and flash_code_start for the "flash" module for word level logging. But I dont want to end up going up into where the Storage module is putting things ?

    @Gordon thanks so much ! I have it up and running. The number of variables needs bumping up for extended RAM, will let you know what else I find

    Hi @Gordon just another little check in for an ETA update ?

    I see that the nrf52840 has 2x UART, will those both be available ? Will be really useful to be able to debug BLE comms whie one serial port is allocated to the BG96

    Thanks

    Its ok right now as I also have a rak8212 which I am currently developing on - but having access to more flash/ram will help with new features I need to add. Will the Flash module have access to more space ? We currently use that for our logging data.
