Hi Alan,
Thank you very much for your reply.
Right now, I'm using an OpenOCD version that I've built today.
But I still got this problem:
(gdb) monitor nrf5 mass_erase
Flash protection of this nRF device is not supported
Failed to check chip's write protection
Did the patch http://openocd.zylin.com/#/c/5348/ make it to the
master branch? Is there a way to test if the patch is actually
in my build?
Once again a big thank you to both of
you (@Alan and @Tomas)
Kind greetings,
Kristof Mulier
