I found the site a few days ago and since then I’ve read a bunch, watched a bunch, read a bunch more, and I’m a bit overloaded and more confused now than when I started.
For my first project, I have a thing that has a set of tap cards to open. I scany-thinged one of the cards with my phone using the Taginfo app…
IC type:
Unknown MIFARE Classic IC, possibly cloned
Memory Information:
1 kB
‣ 16 sectors, with 4 blocks per sector
‣ 64 blocks, with 16 bytes per block
UID listed is in the ##:##:##:## format
Full scan shows things in the nice squares from one video… I think
Based on that, it should be clone-able I think… But now I’m lost- can the NExT do these, or do I need an xM1?
NExT can’t do it, the ones Aox listed can but you’d want to be sure that an xseries implant is able to couple with the reader you use before hedging a bet that it will work
you can buy a field detector (HF) which is in the same form factor as the implant to see if it is able to be powered by the field which indicates whether or not an actual implant might work, i believe these also come with implants though this test would be more of a pre-purchase measure to ensure you buy the right thing.
can you post pictures of the readers you use the card with, if it’s one we recognise there’s likely some word on how well implants play with them.
i was gifted one of these but wasn’t aware (hadn’t checked) that they’d made landfall on the store! even better! such a handy thing that immediately went to live on my keychain
We never announced it buuuuut they also come with the kits now. There are some other things we include with certain products. Because, surprises are fun. /derailed
You can enroll new cards. I’d need to re-watch the instructions on how… I think card 1 is designated as primary and you use that to and and remove maybe… I figured a clone of existing was what I wanted to, but I know nothing.
I have something similar, maybe not the same, but similar. I can tell you that it reeeally doesn’t like to pick up my xMagic. Maybe got it to work once or twice ever. I would probably lean towards a flex on that one. (Granted mine is behind a very very thin sheet of wood)
(Also take my advice with like 6lbs of salt)
The instructions say you can pair any 13.56mhz card… What I’m worried about is their any and actual any may vary… If I call up customer service I’m sure they’d gladly mail me out a new set of cards but I’d be the one there with a scalpel in my own low stakes Saw movie.
Right now I am leaning towards the xMagic due to the seemingly more straightforward install and flexibility (flexibility as ability to do different things, not flexibility as in ability to bend) it has… but again I know nothing. Also considering one of those blinking ones, but no idea what I’d do with it, and possibly a magnet… ugh… this is getting out of hand already…
Do you have any random NFC cards lying around? Hotel keycards, skylanders (yes, those plastic guys), anything?
I want to see if you can enroll some other types of chips. You could also go on amazon and buy some super cheap NTAG 2xx cards for like $10. If an NTAG of some kind works, then that opens a lot of implants like the xSIID up for you.
At that point, if it works, if you’re willing to put $25 more down, you could test an xNT with it, and if that works then you know that a normal injectable (not a flex) should work.
