That’s true for compilation + flashing steps, but the DT guide doesn’t cover required prerequisite packages for each distro.
That’s why I linked the page from the repo, it has required packages for Ubuntu, Arch, Fedora, and openSUSE.
The notice about ModemManager is really important to see as well, if running a host linux install.
You will be able to read the HF UID of your NExT implant when it is installed.
Alot of people use this to unlock their computers.
Cool Cool ok i got it so that reader is HF, i tried it with a HF card i got with my PM3 and it reads perfect…
so let me make sure i understand the NExT chipset, fully
the LF is programmable, to a single type and card number
the HF is pre-coded and has to be used assigned that code to things…
fred
PS thank you for all your help and pointers, i was able to fully get my PM3 working just now, read a card and clone it to a test card that it came with … im assuming it would be the SAME process when i get my implant?!
Yep, this is all correct, other than the NDEF portion of the HF side. Basically, the UID (the “card number” or code as you put it) is fixed, but there’s still user-writable data on the chip. This is the kinda thing where you can scan it with a phone and pull up a website, business card, etc.
Yep, same as the test card. One tip though, I’m assuming you have a PM3 Easy: getting the antenna to couple with the LF side of the NExT is a bit tricky. Basically, move it around a ton over top of your implant, doing lf search commands, until you get a proper read on the LF side of your NExT. When you can do that consistently, over and over, that’s when you can write to it. If you aren’t aligned properly, it can somewhat brick the LF side of your implant, making things tricky to repair (due to lack of something called tear protection, you can read about it in other threads if you want more details).
Thats great to know and A LITTLE scary that i can actually BRICK something thats IMPLANTED in my skin 
LOL
I will make sure i can read it a dozen times before i program…
I still have to schedule my appt to get it implanted
I do have one more question, I also have a safe that uses
EM410x
That seems to also be a LF read… I’m assuming if i set my LF implant to HID i WILL NOT be able to also use it on my safe that uses EM410x
fred
Yes, if you program the LF side of your NExT to HID mode, you will not be able to use it with your EM410x safe. Sadly it’s one or the other. You can program it as much as you want though.
You could always get an xEM or another NExT and put it in EM mode 
It’s true,
I have several LF implants because I have several different LF systems I run into and many are different modes
Better safe than sorry,
?? Several?? i was seriously considering getting a specific EM410x implant for my other hand… BUT how many is several? and where have you put em?
Lol… I guess I’m one of the more crazy crazies
I have 10 currently
4 LF
I keep all my implants to my left hand arm for the time being, as I was trying to “make up” for previous injury
LOL wow, thats awesome i love it… i cant imagine getting that many, didnt even know that was possible 
i can def see myself getting at least the two…
thanks again for the info
fred
Hey Guys,
So i’m back…
I finally got my Implant(s) put in
I put in TWO NExT one in each hand
I have a few questions…
SO i went to a Dangerous Things, recomended location to have it implanted…
The guy first off was awesome, Super Friendly, and Knowledgeable
So i got it put in Yesterday, moments after it was put in, i was able to easily SCAN the chips with my phone NFC, however now the following day, I am having trouble scanning them.
I am assuming its just from slight swelling. but want to make sure thats normal.
Second, I need some guidance on the NFC chip portion…
I downloaded the NFC Tools app for the iPhone…
ANd i would like to know if there is a tutorial, and info on using and writing to the chip.
I see HOW to do it, I just wanted to make sure i dont BRICK something that is IN MY BODY! LOL
thanks
fred
you should buy the WILKA lock from Digiwell - this is the RFID only lock.
the Lock with RFID & Bluetooth doesn’t eork with the implants like the NExT, xNT, xSIID…
it works only wirh the fleximplants.
RFID only lock : lights green
the other lock: blue
i gog the wrong lock first by accidrnt…
THank you Jenny,
However, Just to clarify, this is just a DOOR lock correct?
i already have access control that uses HID Proxcards, and have that in my NExT
im just kind of looking for a NOOB guide to the NFC chip and what i can do with it, what i can write to it,
how to use the NFC Tools app on my phone to put data on it. etc…
thanks
fred
feel free to name drop, thats the sort of information that can benefit others AND the installer through word of “mouth”
that would be my guess also buddy, so no worries there
NFC Tools is good, although, it is not great at chip identification.
Basically it comes down to what you want to use your NExTs for.
Once you have written to them, just present them to an NDEF reader (phone)it it will do what you have asked of it.
open a link
open an app
send a preformwd message
display a map link
…
…
to write one of these to your NExT, it is as easy as choosing what you want, inputting the data, and writing.
just pick what you want from the list
it also has a task function, which can be useful.
I would just suggest you try it out, you won’t brick them, just give the phone the time to read/ write.
remember it takes longer to write than to read.
there is also the paid/pro version which has some further functionality.
there are a few other apps that may be of use to you.
TagWriter is the equivalent of NFC Tools, but with better Chip identification.
Here is a recent write up Amal did for TagWriter how to…very much the same principle as NFC Tools.
TagInfo is a good Chip ID and “diagnostic” tool.
@darthdomo very recently made a cool little app, for utilising your UID for quick input
also @hoker oka made a pretty sweet NDEF tool.
it is actually my preferred NDEF text reader/writer.
No bells and whistles
It just works

Oh and most importantly
The Shop was Pure Body Arts In Brooklyn
Guys name was Brian
He advises to email him and he will schedule with you
bron decour purebodyarts@gmail.com
He was awesome, Knew a lot about the implants, and best practice to implant, and place, etc…
He is Located Near Williamsburg Brooklyn, NY
HIGHLY recommend him, if you are In or near the Boro’s in NY
Hey All,
So far I love my implants, I got Two NExT implants
The one in my left hand is for a Safe, and it works great
The one in my right is set to HID
whicih is my entire house…
I am using this reader
5355AGK00, HID Reader, Proxpro Reader with Keypad (id-enhancements.com)
And i am having problems having it read my implant…
anything i should know about… besides my safe, this is the MAIN other reason i got my implant, please help
I have the keypad less version of that HID pad.
First, have you switched the NeXT over to HID mode? The T5577 is shipped in em4xx mode, but the HID wants it in HID mode.
The other thing is that the antenna pretty much runs under the line on the case. So you probably want to try placing (or swiping) across there.
