I've bought a J-Link Edu JTAG emulator and I am not able to connect to my board unless there's no firmware in it. My project The board features an LPC2387. I've connected JTAG lines nTRST, TDI, TMS, TCK and TDO to the J-Link module, plus RESET. My supply is 3.4V and I've connected it to VTref. I've added a 100K pull-down on the TCK line. All other JTAG lines have internal pull-ups on the MCU as per documentation. My board's reset circuit has a 22nF capacitor to GND and a 47K pull-up. My module is a SEGGER J-Link EDU V9.30, SN 269302119. Firmware is 2015 May 22 17:20.
What does work I can connect to my MCU using this setting if and only if no valid firmware signature is written on the flash. Then the connection from the J‑Flash program succeeds. JTAG chain is scanned and detected: From J-Flash:

No device found at all. Selecting JTAG as default target interface.
Checks I've made and what I've found I've checked I've not disabled the JTAG interface unintentionally by reading back the flash Code Read Protection (CRP) address (0x000001FC) and making sure it doesn't contain any of the defined values (I make it so it has 0xa5a5a5a5, but also tested with 0xffffffff). So, JTAG should be available on the MCU in all cases. Strangely, I do not see the reset or TRST lines go low when I attempt to connect using JTAG (although reset does go low when other connections are attempted by J-Link Commander; SWD or FINE I suppose).
ISP access via UART0 works fine (that's what I use to upload firmware/check flash, etc.).
