xAC V2 Car Access System

Hey all! This is a finalisation of a post I made over six years ago in the Support category where I was trying to make a lock/unlock circuit work with a remote that had separate lock and unlock buttons on it. Originally, I started this project on my 2002 Holden Commodore and between stripping the circuit for parts, selling that car, buying another car and just day-to-day life, it all sort of got forgotten about… until recently. I ordered a NExT implant in 2021 and it took three years before I…

Lodestone MOUSE announcement!

I haven’t done a great job at keeping it “secret” and some of you have been following along the development on Discord. This is an idea I’ve had for a while and there’s been a few iterations over the years but here it is finally! [MOUSE] https://github.com/AxelFougues/Lodestone-biomagnet-tools/wiki/Lodestone-MOUSE This is a modded mouse that produces your audio as a magnetic field over the two mouse buttons. This way you can get two-channel haptic feedback while using it. It connects over Blu…

The number of Proxmark new users we get, even with some great guides, STILL get stuck with errors.

HERE’S a great option/ solution and another nomination for Best Post 2024

PM3 installation scripts

Well, here’s my best attempt at simplifying PM3 installs for beginners https://siliconbased.us/pm3/install/ I’ve automated as much of the process as I can, and I hope to add some troubleshooting/tips/tricks for common problems built in too This is still pretty much a work in progress, I definitely hope to keep improving it Either way, hope you guys like it

POST
A nice little FUCK YOU to Google.

Google has gone full retard

[never-go-full-retard] Our RawNFC app has been submitted to Google for review and has been rejected twice now because of reviewer stupidity. First it was because they claimed we were making false claims due to our screenshot showing Mifare Classic on a list of tag technologies when their test device did not support it (hence it was not shown). After appeal, they are now rejecting it because the app “contains very little content and does not provide an engaging user experience”. [image] I ho…

Tattoo and Laser Removal over x-series

Hey so I did a series of dumb things. Maybe don’t replicate this, but at least it’s some data. First I got a tattoo over my NExT [PXL_20241001_192743603] Then I got a tattoo removal laser (Nd:YAG which is the same type used for sealing the glass) and blasted the shit out of it. [PXL_20240916_195157599] Then I got the implant removed to see if either process had damaged the surface (which would allow for biofouling). Unfortunately I have yet to replace my microscope which broke, …

LF repeater

125KHz Repeater Project - Test units shipped

This run was successful. I have a working LF Repeater. Gonna order some SMD capacitors and see if i can get it tuned in nice and then ill look at a production run. Edit: this is a pricey boi. It’s 6 layers and each layer has quite a bit of copper. Unless someone has ties to the proxgrind team this is likely the smallest I’ll be able to make it. [PXL_20241015_202651632.MP]

ERROR: cannot communicate with the Proxmark (on Mac OS)

thats the problem… Migration assistant moved your Intel based Homebrew config to the M1 so homebrew gets confused. Run these commands arch -x86_64 /usr/local/bin/brew bundle dump --global This takes all your current Homebrew installations into a logfile. you can then search through the logfile and prune out anything you dont normally use arch This is just to ensure your terminal is running arm64. if it isnt then stop here. /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Hom…

Cloning a ISO 14443-A tag issues

The eml file type has been phased out of use within the RRG Proxmark repo/project in favour of the more industry accepted file type of json. On the older guides where you read “eml”, replace it with “json” and you’ll be fine. Few things Ive noticed as I was reading the thread: Source card has 4 byte (N)UID Source card has weak PRNG Source card has 1k memory You are using Proxspace You have used Autopwn/recovery commands multiple times You are copying to a gen1a (primarily) Taking into accoun…

OSX Implant Controlled Actions

Quick guide on how i use my Implant to control my Mac. There are a lot of different scripts available for PC and Androids to interact with your implants but not many that can use OSX. Using 3 apps i can replicate very similar actions that i can use Tasker with on Android. My particular use case is 2FA. My company has very strict 2fa protocols in place which require me to login to our systems every 30 min using Google Authenticator. I have switched Auth providors to Authy so this guide will …

Chipped… No… But his affair partner could send morse code to him using one of these. But hed really have to get it up there for you to not notice it sticking out. So not necesarily implanted. More inserted.

you may have ed, but have you voted?

We only have 10 voters ( and one of you only voted once, where you COULD have voted twice )

As an Apple infrastructure hater, and whilst I do appreciate the assistance given, I wonder if it would be fairer to have the best 2024 posts and a second category of apple post (note the singular).

Let the abuse begin
