Firmware Nordic Thingy:53 Build Error in nRF Connect SDK

Help
#1

Hi, I’d cloned this repo https://github.com/edgeimpulse/firmware-nordic-thingy53 and attempt to build the firmware using nRF Connect SDK (v2.1.0) in VS code. There are some errors during the build process which I’m not able to trace/solve.

Hi @JuanYi,

We do not support nRF Connect v2+ at this time. Please use v1.9.1 (see this repo for requirements: GitHub - edgeimpulse/firmware-nordic-thingy53). Hope that helps!

Thanks @shawn_edgeimpulse, I’d switched to ncs v1.9.1 and no more zephyr error during the build. However, I got error when building the edge-impulse-sdk for dsp.

#4

After switching to v1.9.1, the Edge Impulse FW compiles successfully.

#5

I have uninstalled the v2.0.1 and reinstall the v1.9.1 and update the the toolchain, it still return the same error when I build the configuration in VS code… struggling.

#6

I’d uninstalled both version in nRF toolchain manager and reinstall v1.9.1, and this time succeeded in building the firmware. I guess probably somehow v1.9.1 was using the updated (incompatible) packages from v2.1.0. Anyway, thanks for the attention! :smiley:
