Use any phone as a key fob to open doors

[@thisisacrummyname]

Or buy a $20 RFID reader/writer & just clone your key fob onto another keyfob, or a RFID card, or both. You could put the card in your wallet & the new keyfob on your jacket or purses zipper. Shoot you can even use a really strong double stick tape & stick one of the rfid cards on your phone case. I think they even have rfid stickers. I bought the more advanced kit that came with 20 key fobs & 20 rfid cards & I can reprogram up to 10 different frequencies. The whole thing cost me $50 I use it for so many more things than most people would think of using it for.

[@NCMEDIC216]

Which one did you buy that works

[@donaldmistry]

Which one did you purchase? Link pls.

[@donaldmistry]

Also what other things do you use it for?

[@thisisacrummyname]

@Donald Mistry I searched lots of videos & this is the one that most people recommended. There are several of these out that all look the same but some of them don’t work right. The ones with the blue screen are the bad ones, & the ones with the red screens are the good ones. It’s also important your read what kind of rfid you are scanning not all key fobs, stickers, & cards are the same kind of rfid. Sometimes the rfid will copy but won’t work because it is encrypted. To get past some of the encrypted ones you take the batteries of the scanner then plug the cord that comes with the kit into your windows laptop & just let the device do its thing it will automatically turn on & your p.c. Will bring up the menu. After that you scan the card you want to copy, then it will run its encryption software to decrypt it. After it does so then grab a blank sticker, keyfob, or card & write the info on that for your copy. They even have sports band bracelet with rfid in them. Anyway I hope that helps you out

[@greengiant7241]

Question: All my key fobs have batteries for power. How does taking the antenna from the fob, gluing it to the outside of the phone case without creating a connection to the phone's power source work. It would seem that you could sick the fob antenna to anything convenient to carry and it would work OR it would have to be connected to some type power source. PLEASE EXPLAIN.

[@FrankOfAllTrades]

The fob I am working with does not need any power source they work exactly like the NFC microchips that are on credit cards these days.

[@nimeni_in_drum]

@Triple.threee no I am studying it. So far I identified a MIFARE tool in app store which I think it is not for the 125kHz type of RFID , there must be a way. if I had a NFC standalone device connectable to a PC via USB I think it was easy

[@toujoursmontreal]

Love it, but don't need it right now. Gotta love the phrase: "If you break the antenna inside, there is no coming back from there". Thanks, Frank, for another piece of invaluable advice.

[@carllarsen782]

You can repair a broken antenna coil but it is not easy. Its easier to start over and learn from the mistake. But copy the code first just incase.. I spent 3 years trying to figure out our estates door entry system make and model of the controller and once i had that it took me two weeks to decrypt it. Yippeee now 100's of us can now get the fobs for £1.00 instead of the corrupt Council's £25.00 that actually costs less than £0.62p. It is a security door fob so we need to be sensible. I ask for proof of address and dont give any out to people i don't know.

[@carllarsen782]

I justify the £0.28p to eventually pay for the programming device. Proxmark3 is a must but don't spend a tun on it, the cheap Chinese versions aroung £45 are just as good.

I was thinking he has wedding music stored on the phone so that it would play when he wants the door unlocked but he did not activate his phone program to make that work since he is married to that building it seemed to me to be the most logical explanation for the phone usage. This being a No Knock Entry I guess he picked up smarts from his eagerness to tape that round antenna on the phone & forgot all his other secret options one being that if not detected a bucket of water would pour onto the head of the perpetrator and your safety feature could have been soaking wet else feathers fall all over perpetrator before he can get back from the wall sensor. As for the black electrical tape, when it gets warm enough it begins to slide around messing up the phone and cotton fibers from your pocket would stick to the positions surrounding it. SO to avoid a mess get Rustoleum Rubber Coating Spray it is cheaper than Flex Seal Liquid Paint or Spray which solves the problem but you still have a lumpy phone. The easy way is to hang it around your neck in a waterproof sealed container up pour over it which can be any color or clear like your making a collage of photos which is another suggestion, your girlfriend or wife photo on one side it on the other, artwork goes far. Why is there no battery, is it like a business card patch to get past the front gate? Good luck with that mess you created, capture the moment and hang it in a picture frame.
