Question about repeater stickers

Hi!

I’m the owner of a Samsung Galaxy Flip 7. With a case on, this phone is completely unable to read NFC cards. For instance, my field detector refuses to light up at all until I get the case off. I’m even unable to get my Yubikey to tap with the case on.

I just saw the repeater sticker pack and was wondering if daisy chaining them was a good idea. I’d place one under the case and another on top. Would that work fine?

Thanks for the help.

This may or may not be counter productive.

Slider on YouTube has a video stacking them, I’ll find it for you, but im not sure that stacking will help

The best way to get your answer is to test

But

One repeater should normally do it.

Outside the case will probaly be better than inside the case as seperation between reader and repeater seems to work well.

But again, RF can be a mysterious bitch, all I can suggest is, grab the RSP and have a play

Not quite the one I was thinking of, but you get the idea, oh, and it was at 999 views, so you’ll get him his 1000th view

I suppose I’ll get a 2-pack and try. I’m wary of it working outside the case since I can’t get a signal with the field detector, but guess I’ll try it and see.

Yeah it will work with two. But you are going to get poor scan results the more repeaters you add. One should be more than enough normally but with these new fold phones I don’t have enough data for it

The stickers are a god send, I don’t have the same model but I have one on the case of my Samsung S23 Ultra and the almost instantaneous reads are a bliss.

I only wish I had a cover over the sticker, as I’ve gone through a couple already from them peeling off from my phone going in and out of my pocket.

If you don’t have Hammys stickers, you’re missing out!

Fuck I feel so daft.

I’ve always put mine bottom corner, but had to overlap a little with my replacement phone case last week, I stuck the stupidly strong metal plate for my phone holder too central.

I find having the sticker higher up is ergonomically convenient for scanning

This is what I would do.

Get some contact cleaner, spray and release your metal plate and reposition (it will remain sticky, rather than IPA etc, that will remove the adhesive)

Or remove and add new adhesive

Or reorient

If you have a Midwest gadgets Field detector, that will help with getting your Repeater sticker positioned perfectly
