Hacking [GUIDE] Using Amiibo .bin With Only PowerSaves For Amiibo

[grubgrub]

Can we just buy the powertags and use an android phone to write to it or do we need the powersaves device as well?

 

[owek1]

The data tel power save can write to ntag215 stickers via namiio correct?

Can we just buy the powertags and use an android phone to write to it or do we need the powersaves device as well?

no one has clearly stated if the Datel Powersaves for Amiibo NFC reader/writer could write to blank NFC tags using Namiio or the Powersaves software which i hope someone could clarify this.

Regarding purchasing Powertags separately for use with an NFC-enabled android phone without the actual Powersaves device is a gamble, you are better off getting the Powersaves+Powertags together i think.

Or just order blank NFC tags and use it with Tagmo or Amiibitz using your android NFC-enabled phone which i think is easier and cheaper.

Anyway, i ordered thru EBay the Powersaves+Powertag and 10pcs blank NFC ntag215 stickers via Aliexpress and hopefully i could get the said items soon. The wait is killing me.

As soon as i get them, i will try to experiment with it and let you guys know..

Hello guys, Datel sell also the PowerSaves on EBay : http://www.ebay.fr/sch/datel.electronics/m.html?item=252812884415

And a great news, they asked me what we do with the PowerSaves because they sold many of them these last days, so I told them the spoof trick and also asked if they can sell Token Separately, and tadaa :

The very great news is people with old black PowerSaves model can also use these powertag, I tested it and they are compatible.

I think they are also compatible with amiiqo etc.

Shipped and received 3 days after my order (UK to France).

Thank you for this tip. I went ahead and ordered a ten pack. Came out to $35 shipped to the US. I plan to add a thin strip of Velcro to this and make little printed and laminated cards to set on top that I can switch out as needed.

You can't write to anowertag with an android device. It seems
Something inside the writer and powertag need to talk to one another.

My stickers arrive Monday. I'll be able to test if the data tel device can write to these stickers as well and report back.

So does the Namiio software work directly with the powersaves pad and puck?

Cause using it sounds a lot easier. XD

Yes. It is what I been using.

Some observations:

The power tag works with Tagmo (http://gbatemp.net/threads/diy-amiibo-cards.406978/page-28#post-6043258) for read/write but is read only with amiiqo/amiiwrite.

Namiio tokens seem to be exactly the same and can be bought separately ~21US$ (www.aliexpress.com/wholesale?catId=0&initiative_id=SB_20160328101336&SearchText=namiio).

It can use files edited with this tool: https://gbatemp.net/threads/amiibo-cheat-tool.409152/

An NFC enabled phone, Tagmo, and the tags is all you need for your amiibo collection.

Hello, can you please confirm Tagmo with a PowerTag works? I don't seem to make it work using a OnePlus One, but it may be the wrong apk version I guess... Thanks!

The Powersaves software, just like the N2Elite software cannot write to the blank nfc stickers.

Using stickers with Namiio. Not powersave software. My stickers are still out for delivery. Not confident I'll have them today.

you think using the Namiio software with the Powersaves device will work with blank ntag215s?

The Namiio, power saves, and N2Elite all use emulated technology not actual NTAG215 chips. Maybe if you found some hacked version of the software specifically designed to write to NTAG215s it might work... but its not going to work using the off the shelf software meant to write to an emulating device.

So just to confirm before I buy this, it can be used like Amiiqo to download and store amiibo on a tag using this method?

Yes. One per tag per flash.

Rewritable or editable yes?

I'm surprised the community isn't jumping on this. I have 18 amiibos, and not needing to carry them around to friends' houses is great!

Hi, can you please develop on how the powertag and TagMo works together? Nobody else seems to be able to write a functional powertag (used on a console) with Tagmo

 

[jayfunk]

Been trying to write to a Power Tag with TagMo 2.3.4 Beta on a Nexus 9 (Android 7.1.1) and the app crashes.
If I write a bin using the PowerSaves base, TagMo is able to read and save it.

Edit: Tried a Samsung A5, its writing something to the Tag but the Wii U is unable to read it.

 

[DocKlokMan]

Powersaves Portal and software cannot write to NTAG215s as-is.

Powersaves Portal and NaMiiO software will not write to NTAG215 as-is.

TagMo cannot write to Power Tag.

Currently there is no way to mix and match these products and functions.

Not everyone has an NFC Android phone and if you have the Powertag chances are you have the PowerSaves base.

Make sure the Amiibo bins are in the same directory as the EXE files. When entering the name of the dump don't enter the .bin. For example if the dump is called MyAmiiboDump.bin just enter MyAmiiboDump.

Also make sure the bin file has no spaces in the name and capitals do matter. The tool will only work on Windows 7/8/8.1/10. Possibly Vista.

Hello, I have the .bin files in the same directory as the EXE (which is attached to the post) and I'm still getting problems...

EDIT: Ok, I tried again and I dunno why it's working now but it seems it only works after i've either tried to dump an existing amiibo save or have the powersave program open at the same time as the attached program (or both).

The reason it worked is because the folder you are pointing it to didn't exist until you manually dumped an amiibo.

FWIW you can just move stuff to that folder yourself if you want.
