Hallo, which variant did you use, the low-level access or the IsoDep acccess?
The low-level example will only work with MIFARE Ultralight cards (these are always NfcA). Sorry, I don't know any example for low-level access to NfcB cards. The IsoDep example will certainly only give a useful result if the card contains the ICAO electronic passport application... br Michael On 30.04.2011 00:58 priti - wrote: > Hi Michael, > > Thanks! that worked with my nfcA cards! > But when I use it with my nfcB cards, I am getting a "67 00" (protocol > error?) > > Appreciate your help, > Priti > > On Thu, Apr 28, 2011 at 8:50 AM, Michael Roland <mi.rol...@gmail.com > <mailto:mi.rol...@gmail.com>> wrote: > > Hallo, > > > What exactly is low level access? > > With low-level access (as compared to APDU based access) I mean some > vendor specific (proprietary) protocol according to the ISO/IEC 14443-3 > standard.
