Hi Valens, Yes, Coded PHY and advertising extensions are fully supported by nimble. You need to enable and tune them in your project syscfg.yml file. This is a sample config I use for testing with most features enabled BLE_EXT_ADV: 1 BLE_EXT_ADV_MAX_SIZE: 1650 BLE_HCI_EVT_LO_BUF_COUNT: 16 MSYS_1_BLOCK_COUNT: 160 MSYS_1_BLOCK_SIZE: 256 BLE_LL_CFG_FEAT_DATA_LEN_EXT: 1 BLE_LL_CFG_FEAT_LE_2M_PHY: 1 BLE_LL_CFG_FEAT_LE_CODED_PHY: 1 BLE_LL_CFG_FEAT_LL_PRIVACY: 1 BLE_LL_CONN_INIT_MAX_TX_BYTES: 251 BLE_LL_CONN_INIT_SLOTS: 4 BLE_LL_DTM: 1 BLE_LL_DTM_EXTENSIONS: 1 BLE_LL_VND_EVENT_ON_ASSERT: 1 BLE_MAX_CONNECTIONS: 5 BLE_MAX_PERIODIC_SYNCS: 5 BLE_MULTI_ADV_INSTANCES: 5 BLE_PERIODIC_ADV: 1 BLE_PERIODIC_ADV_SYNC_TRANSFER: 1 BLE_VERSION: 51
As for PCA10059, it is compatible with PCA10056 (with exception of LED and buttons) so the build for PCA10056 should work on nRF52840 dongle. Also I'm not sure if USB support went in before 1.8 was tagged so you may have to use master branch instead of release.
