To clarify:

I saw the issue on a different chip than the Nordic.  My issue was similar enough to the OP's (locking up the BT stack on the iDevice) to warrant a response.  I have no direct experience with the Nordic chip/stack misbehaving.  Indeed, the project that I did do with the nRF51  some time ago did not suffer from this malady.

Does that mean that the Nordic chip has an issue with its stack, or does the iOS stack have an issue where it can't handle a situation where an ACK doesn't happen?

How did you actually fix the issue? Are you able to get down to that low level when programming on an iOS device?

I am working on a iOS 9+ ble app that talks to a Nordic nRF51. I have a couple remote beta testers who have reported after n number of successful connections, the bluetooth on their device stops working and the only way to fix it is to turn on/off bluetooth on the device. I am assuming something I am doing is crashing the bluetooth daemon but have not been able to reproduce this myself.

I wanted to know if this has happened to anyone else or if there are any suggestions on how to troubleshoot a situation like this?

Hi Matt,



I have seen it a few times.  For me it turned out to be bad ACK/ NACK of a packet.  Sometimes a packet would not get ACK’d, sometimes an extra ACK was added.  I can not remember if both caused the lockup, but at least one of them did.  I would even look for cases where you receive a packet, then send a packet, then ACK the received packet.  This interleave of send and receive processes may confuse it also.



Good Luck,

Ephram
