nRF Cloud AGPS Sample - Can't load using newtmgr

I’m in the process now and I used the setx in the instructions. I still points to the old toolchain "setx ZEPHYR_TOOLCHAIN_VARIANT gnuarmemb
setx GNUARMEMB_TOOLCHAIN_PATH “C:\Program Files (x86)\GNU Arm Embedded Toolchain\9 2020-q2-update”
"
It bombed out in my west build:

PS C:\ncs\nrf\samples\nrf9160\nrf_cloud_agps> west build -b circuitdojo_feather_nrf9160ns

I’m going to go back and fix mine now…

I NOW HAVE THE RIGHT TOOLCHAIN INSTALLED:

C:\Program Files (x86)\GNU Tools Arm Embedded\9 2019-q4-major>setx ZEPHYR_TOOLCHAIN_VARIANT gnuarmemb

I’M NOT SURE WHERE THIS ISSUE IS….

Looks like the setx is not quite right:

Here is mine: C:\Program Files (x86)\GNU Tools Arm Embedded\9 2019-q4-major

Changed my environment variables for the GNUARMEMB_TOOLCHAIN_PATH to C:\Program Files (x86)\GNU Tools Arm Embedded\9 2019-q4-major

Ran newtmgr:
PS C:\ncs\nrf\samples\nrf9160\nrf_cloud_agps> newtmgr
newtmgr -c serial image upload build/zephyr/app_update.bin
190.93 KiB / 190.93 KiB [==========================================================================================================] 100.00% 15.80 KiB/s 12s
Done

WORKED!! Tomorrow I’ll focus on setting up nRF Connect for Cloud. Thanks for all the help!

No worries. Overall your documentation is fantastic! The tiny glitches help us all to learn better. Thank you!
