Instead of writing the data with a phone, there's an app that basically holds up info ready to be read from the amiibo reader on the consoles, is that possible? Or is there already an app for that?

Just but some blank NFC stickers, they're cheap as hell.
Or if you have some extra money get an amiibo powersave with the re-writable tag. It's quick and easy and you don't need a phone with NFC.

And no, it's not possible to do that to answer your question.

Yeah, have to wait for zipnfc to get the 215 cards back in stock as i need more than just 10 tags i already used up. And they are the cheapest ones that ships within a week. Next shipment with 10k tags is in 5 days.

I would honestly recommend the Amiibo powersaves; I used tags until I got one. Very quick to rewrite the 'powertag', just make sure if you do you're getting the version with the powertag which is a white box. It's not overly expensive either.

Also I bought mine from codejunkies which I really wouldn't recommend, their service is awful and I think I paid a little more than I would have paid if I bought on ebay.

I'm not after to boost the characters that way, just a way to use my phone as a "fake amiibo" until i can buy 20 more cards.

Aliexpress has way cheaper shipping (free compared to 4 euros i have top pay), but 3 times longer wait. Plus i have to wait for ali to add paypal support. I don't like to paste my visa info just anywhere.

i checked zipnfc is cheaper and faster( cause u said 4 euros= 1 week shipping) but the zip nfc cost me $10.45 on nfc zip while aliexpress cost me $18.61 including premium shipping which still didnt arrive so i guess ill switch to zip nfc PS how long does it take for processing

Even the expensiest shipping from ali is minimum 17 days which is 17 bucks. I pay around 4-5 bucks and get the thing within a week from zip. You pay 10 because you live in canada, thus the package have to travel overseas to arrive.

Codejunkies is the consumer site of Datel, the manufacturer of the device. This is where I bought mine, their service was awesome. Could not find it any cheaper. Although I know a guy in the US that got it for 14$ from a gamestop instead of 19$.

Nice! Now to wait for this to become a separate app and not something we need cyanogenmod for.

Btw, i already have a phone with nfc. and the stickers are just as cheap as the card ones.

Honestly idk, I looked at the app to just read data and tell me what that data was, I noticed that it says it emulates but I have no idea how to.

Man before the switch hit, I brought some tags on ebay from US to US got 12 for $8 ship.
After the switch came out they jack up the prices and now there running around 10 for $20.

So i went with aliexpress just waiting on delivery but order 100 tags for around $30
I shouldnt run out any time soon lol.

Oh and fyi. They said they cant make a app because the phone cant emul a tag but only read/write to them.

Yeah. I tried everything, but didn't work, so i refunded it.
Think i'm just gonna order from ali instead.

Yeah, i refunded it. It could't read from one of my cards, and could't activate it when i tried to emulate a .bin file.
