I was wondering if this could be achieved with homebrew somehow. We can make the cards using a phone or external NFC reader/writer but a lot of people don't have NFC capable phones. So what I'm asking is if it's possible to use the above devices to run an app like Tagmo but in Homebrew format.

I'm not sure if the current state of homebrew has access to the NFC chip, but this would be an excellent idea for a homebrew app!

I know it uses the IR, but I'm not sure if the IR IO is accessible. Might be worth looking into, especially since I have N3DS with the built-in NFC. The route I went was just to pick up a Galaxy Nexus phone on ebay for $40 shipped. I will just use it for a wifi only device and run tagmo on it.

I have 2 phones right now. My work phone is a Windows phone and while NFC reading and writing is easy, it doesn't support full .bin's, it only supports thinks like text and open apps. My other phone is an android phone, but doesn't have NFC.

    @Xdqwerty, Yeah, I'd recommend having another OS just in-case you want to play games.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    At least Linux doesn't contain spyware than what Windows has.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, cuz of lag?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, No. Whenever you use the internet on Windows, Microsoft collects personal data and installs bloatware that isn't necessarily needed, such as Edge.

    Yes, you can debloat the operating system, but in some cases for me it just reinstalls them.

    @Xdqwerty yes, when you are installing Windows on the first steps you are asked for your current location, you MUST to select «international» so no bloatware is installed, because the bloatware is location based. if this night I have some time I will setup a VM and take screenshots.
