Hey guys. I have been having terrible luck lately and could really use some help. First my NExT is doa, then my trusty xEM stops working
I had an HID card written to it and have only overwritten it a couple times over the past 9 months or so. I tried overwriting it today (with lf hid clone -r) to switch from my school id to my work badge and it wasnât working. Everything seemed fine but when I would âlf hid readerâ or âlf searchâ it would just return my school credentials. I have a custom ferrite core barrel antenna (paired with a PM3 Easy on Iceman) that works great, and I was previously getting 20mm reads so that is not the issue. I thought I remembered potentially having password issues previously(but in hindsight that was with a different card) so I ran âlf t5 -chkâ (not in test mode!) and about halfway through aborted it by hitting enter on my keyboard with my other hand. Now a couple hours later I am getting nothing. Canât read or write. I am devastated. Any help is very much appreciated.
Edit: I have tried the test mode writing block 0 command and still cannot read
Edit 2: My b for not finding and trying this but I just went through it all a couple times and still got nothing. Does that mean it is dead?
Edit 3: tried just spam wiping it probably 10-20 times and then got the following to detect once but have been unable to get it again. What are the odds that is just a fluke?
Edit 4: Not really sure what I did but I think I saved it. I was able to read and write and I am just not gonna touch it anymore
