HI,
I am using BL653dvk board(customized ). I am following this link ( https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/82430/ncs-external-flash-ota-change-qspi-to-spi) and according to that i have modified my prj.conf file and overlay as well as pm_static.yml file . I am able to build it successfully . after flashing to the board BLE also got up and after sending the app_uodate.bin file through Bluetooth. It is not completely booted it seems. in between only device stopped responding. here are the logs . what might be the reason for that.

The bin file which am sending has different build time from the current build. which is easy for me to differentiate the board got updated or not.
Note - Board has external flash of 512 KB (IS25LQ040B).
