I tried all of the suggested keys for authentication of this mifare device found here - https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-pn5 ... nfc/mifare - Trying the mifareclassic_memdump example and I get authentication errors for all sectors. I tried reformatting it to NDEF then back using the examples and the mifareclassic_ndeftoclassic sketch also fails to authenticate sector 16.
The other 3 cards I have (3 different ones) all work fine this one is just giving me issues. I'm open to any suggestions.
Thanks,
James

Let's try a new card.
Send a note to [email protected] with a link to this thread and the folks there will get you a replacement.

Re: Mifare 13.56MHz Band #921 - unable to authenticate
Ok, got the new bracelet today, same results. I didn't think to copy the output from the original run of mifareclassic_memdump but it's almost identical to the post mifareclassic_formatndef and attempted reformat to mifareclassic.
Step 1: Tried reading the bracelet with mifareclassic_memdump
results: unable to authenticate for all blocks
Step 2: Tried formatting to ndef with mifareclassic_formatndef
results: appeared to be successful
Step 3: Tried to format back to mifare
results:
Step 4: Tried reading again with mifareclassic_memdump just in case it actually worked
results:
Please note results are duplicated as I tried the same things with both bracelets (got them mixed up and wasn't sure which was the replacement).
I must be missing something but I have no idea what it doesn't make sense that two would be faulty in a row. I also have one of the small keychain types, the credit card sized one that came with the RFID/NFC Shield and a small tag on a lanyard. All of the others work fine.
Please advise,
James

Re: Mifare 13.56MHz Band #921 - unable to authenticate
Hmm.. I've asked for help from our NFC expert, who says there may be something complicated going on.
He's working on another project right now, but has offered to pull some hardware and dig into the problem when he's done with that. It may take a couple of days though.

No problem I have other cards to work with in the mean time I await any results they come up with.
Thanks,
