BLE on Nucleo-L476RG with X-NUCLEO-IDB05A1

Hello,

I wanted to try BLE on my Nucleo-L476RG Board with a BLE shield: the X-NUCLEO-IDB05A1. So first, I tried the mbed-os-example-ble-Beacon and it worked. When I looked on the application nRF connect on my phone, I could see my BLE device. However, when I tried with the mbed-os-example-ble-HeartRate example, it didn't work. It seems to be the line ble.gap().startAdvertising(); that doesn't work. Indeed, it returns BLE_STACK_BUSY everytime. Is there someone that has this problem with the X-NUCLEO-IDB05A1 shield and know what happen ?

Thank you, Julien

I finally found what is the problem. After some debugging, I saw that the reset time of the shield on the mbed library was not the same as on the STM Cube Expansion BLE. Indeed, on mbed, the wait time is only of 5us between the reset and 505us after the reset when it is of 5ms in the cube. When I changed the wait_us(5); by wait_ms(5) in the reset function of the BlueNRGDevice.cpp file, everything worked fine.
