The nRF Toolbox is a container app that stores your Nordic Semiconductor apps for Bluetooth Smart in one location.
It contains applications demonstrating BLE profiles: Cycling Speed and Cadence, Running Speed and Cadence, Heart Rate Monitor, Blood Pressure Monitor, Health Thermometer Monitor, Glucose Monitor and Proximity Monitor. Since version 1.10.0 the nRF Toolbox supports also the Nordic UART Service which may be used for bidirectional text communication between devices. The UI allows one to create configurable remote control with UART interface.
The Device Firmware Update (DFU) profile allows one to upload the application, bootloader and/or the Soft Device image over-the-air (OTA). It is compatible with Nordic Semiconductor nRF51822 devices that have the S110 SoftDevice and bootloader enabled. Since the 1.11.0 version nRF Toolbox allows to send the required init packet. More information about the init packet may be found here: https://github.com/NordicSemiconductor/nRF-Master-Control-Panel/tree/master/init%20packet%20handling
The DFU has the following features:
- Scans for devices that are in DFU mode
- Connects to devices in DFU mode and uploads the selected firmware (soft device, bootloader and/or application)
- Allows HEX or BIN file upload through your phone or tablet
- Allows to update a soft device and bootloader from ZIP in one connection
---- To upload soft device and bootloader together, place them in a ZIP file and name: softdevice.hex and bootloader.hex. If application.hex is also included in ZIP, the service will upload first two and send the app to the new bootloader automatically.
- Pause, resume, and cancel file uploads
- Works in portrait and landscape orientation
- Includes pre-installed examples that consist of the Bluetooth Smart heart rate service and running speed and cadence service
Note:
- Android 4.3 or newer is required.
- Tested on Nexus 4, Nexus 7, Samsung S4 with Android 4.3 and on Nexus 4, Nexus 5, Nexus 7 with Android 4.4.
- Compatible with nRF51822 devices that have S110 v5.2.1 and the bootloader from nRF51 SDK v4.4.1+
- nRF51822 Development kits can be ordered from http://www.nordicsemi.com/eng/Buy-Online .
- The nRF51 SDK and S110 SoftDevice are available online from http://www.nordicsemi.com for developers who have purchased an nRF51822 product.
- The source code of nRF Toolbox is available on GitHub: https://github.com/NordicSemiconductor/Android-nRF-Toolbox
- nRF Toolbox has replaced the nRF Utility app which is no longer supported
Known problems:
- Nexus 4 and Nexus 7 with Android 4.3 does not allow to unbound devices.
- Reconnection to bondable devices may not work on several tested phones.
- Nexus 4, 5 and 7 with Android 4.4 fails when reconnecting when Gatt Server is running.
- Reset of Bluetooth adapter may be required if other error appear.
Know problems with DFU settings:
- Setting Package Receipt Notification to OFF or less than ~400 will not work on some phones, f.e. Nexus 4, Nexus 7. On Nexus 5 it increases upload speed to 4.3 sec/18kb.
