the last thing I thought I wrote to it was just to go to a webpage, and that is all I have really done with it.

I am new to this so I am not sure if it is ndef formatted, when I read it it says Mifare ultralight tag type ISO 14443-3a type A then the serial number

do you have a case on your phone? try taking it off and using the top edge of your phone as the probe when writing

yes I have tried that, didn’t work

it lights up when I read it but when trying to write it give me the unsupported error

the iPhone has a seriously difficult time dealing with chips that have a corrupted or broken NDEF record. You might try using tagwriter for iOS and doing an erase or format operation, or just try to make it do a simple record write. I don’t think writing to a broken ndef record is supported on iOS but I do think tagwriter will fail and then try raw commands to repair the record… I have heard of people using tagwriter on iOS to fix these kinds of problems before.

also don’t forget - dngr.us/iphone - hold your phone like this for best results

We don’t know that yet…all we know is, it is not working with your iPhone

Do you have access to any other readers? Android perhaps? Flipper Zero? PM3?

But we do know that it has not failed, because of this;

If it had failed, you would get zero response whatsoever. Something has messed up your NDEF record and you need to figure out a way to fix it. iPhone is not going to be your friend in this endeavor. I have heard of other people being able to successfully repair the NDEF records with their iPhones but it never seems to be repeatable with most people.

sending raws with advanced commands on NFC Tools for IOS could be useful but I find it finnickey at best and doing the whole slate of commands will take a lovely little lifetime.

if you wish to attempt it anyway here are the RAWs from @Satur9 src

you might be able to chain them, I cant remember
