Hello,
I purchased the nRF8001 Bluefruit LE Breakout board but it is dead on arrival. I verified It's getting power with a multimeter, but when I run your iPhone app it just searches without finding it.

Could you post clear pictures of your board and the connections to it?

Double check that you hooked up the ICSP header correctly. I had the schematic flipped (i.e. pin 1 was really pin 6) and had the same issue. Flipping the diagram the code displayed the next line "Advertising" in the serial window. Another quirk is that the device won't show up in the iOS list of devices until it connects through the Adafruit.jnick21 wrote:Hello,
