Mine ended up spot on to yours. Was originally concerned it was encroaching on the bones but no problems here.

Please update so I can let you do all the hard work and then copy your ass :p

Grab Knock Code Xposed module. All it does is change the stock pattern security to four knock boxes like the G3, so set a pattern before enabling it. I like this setup because it's still stock. I don't like aftermarket lock screens, they always feel cheap to me.

At first it'll have 4 sectioned off boxes that flash when you knock them. Hide the grid and the flashing and it's completely invisible to anyone, but you knock it like normal. Long press any box to reset the pattern if you **** up entering it.

This is the slickest setup I've used. Attached is a photo of my lock screen and a photo of the message it gives you after long pressing.

Do you have any info permanently written to your tag? I had to freeze Tags.apk so I didn't get the empty tag message pop up after every unlock, only thing is disabling that affects the the NFC sounds. Wish there was a way to keep vCard info on the tag without it triggering every time on unlock.
[NFC Hacking] MathewBrack:
Ahh I think that's about right, I've never had any issues with this placement.

Cheers, I'll take a look at this :)

NFC LocksreenOffEnabler has the ability to stop the sounds

I have "bad://access/development" permanently written to mine as I use locale with Tasker and this means you don't get the pop up when you scan it.
[NFC Hacking] dimex:
Freezing Tags.apk in TiBu gets rid of NFC sounds, regardless of the settings in NFC LSOE, weird bug I guess.

I was referring to something else written to the tag, like a vCard or Tasker task, or url. If you have that line written and something else written following it, it'll still launch the second thing, ya?

I wish there was a way to unlock the phone and not have the other info be scanned until scanning the tag again with the phone unlocked.
[NFC Hacking] MathewBrack:
Not in this case the bad://access/development command means your tag will only work with locale and Tasker. So anything else written to it would not do anything

Your best bet for this feature would be to drop a message on the support thread for NFC LocksreenOffEnabler. I bet it could be an added feature or another solution could be found easily

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2478163

I'll drop a question there myself
[NFC Hacking] MathewBrack:
I asked for you, I'll post here if I get a reply :)
[NFC Hacking] dimex:
Ya, thanks. I was subscribed to that thread anyways. Someone did ask a similar question before I think, but it never got answered. I may ask too, the more the merrier.

Have you checked aliexpress? There are electronic deadbolts on there. However, I was thinking about all this recently, and I really think the best and most versatile solution for our implants would be Z-wave.

Don't know if you're familiar with it, but Z-Wave is a home automation protocol. Right now, this (https://benext.eu/shop/product_info.php?products_id=44) is the only RFID reader that's Z-Wave compatible, and it's ugly as ****.

You can make a little Rasberry Pi Z-Wave compatible with the RaZberry module. I don't know how to work with any of that stuff. If we were able to make a Z-Wave compatible RFID/NFC card reader, that would open us up to just about anything imaginable. That way, you could set up a reader built into the wall outside that would trigger a Z-Wave deadbolt to open the door, stick another reader by your light to turn on/off lights, one for the coffee maker, etc, etc, etc.

This seems so much better than making a dedicated system for every single thing you want the tag to work with.
[NFC Hacking] MathewBrack:
I don't follow, why would I want a reader next to my light switch so I could turn my lights on etc. Surely I could just use the switch. Etc I don't see an advantage to these things apart from the deadbolt
[NFC Hacking] dimex:
Just an example, could be anything. Why get an implant and unlock the door when you could just use a key? :D
[NFC Hacking] MathewBrack:
You can't lose a lightswitch haha you can lose a key. But aye I get you :)
[NFC Hacking] MathewBrack:
I tried using the knock code xposed module, however unfortunately with both the NFC Lockscreen... module and knock code module active at the same time my system UI was crashing I'd say about 75% of the time I unlocked my device which unfortunately relocks the screen. sometimes I was having to attempt to unlock my phone 2 or 3 times before it finally worked :( in the end i just uninstalled knock code and have had no issues since
[NFC Hacking] ImitableBeatle:
Hello everyone, I'm just starting to get into this new world of NFC implants and being the tech loving person that I am I've taken and extreme interest to this. I'm in love with the fact that I can do things with just a simple touch from my hand. I'd like to get an implant but I'm not sure on what I'd do with it. Can someone get me up to speed and inform me on a couple of cool/simpler with the chip things I can do with such technology in my hand?

I've already read this entire post from the first post so I'm a little caught up to your stories.
[NFC Hacking] MathewBrack:
I use mine most frequently for:

unlocking my phone

passing links and contact info to other people

most larger buisnesses, colleges, universities will happily add your implant to the approved list for door controls etc

use it to turn off my phone alarm, meaning I have to interact with my device as opposed to just swiping it away

apart from this I use it for things such as launching apps e.g. if i go shopping I will add a launch app command to my tag so that when I unlock my phone in a store it brings up my google keep shopping list straight away

although these are just simple things, eventually when I move out of rented accommodation I will be adding Samsung NFC locks to my front door to allow me access without the need for a key.

hope this helps :)

any other questions feel free to ask
[NFC Hacking] SIRKRA:
No as i'm not an animal or a BEAST to be tracked off and i'll never be SLAVE of technology as it should be inverse, cheers.

How much does it cost, are there any possible adverse effects, and as I'm 14, will it work okay as I grow older?
[NFC Hacking] NisseDILLIGAF:
Hi all...!!

Just thought I would post a video showing me making my implant... ( sorry for the bad quality )

To be honest, I only use it to unlock my phone and keep an adress to my contact webpage....

I bought the kickstarter campaign from Dangerous Things...

and my piercer here in Malmo, sweden, helped me put it in...

TSA

Hello guys,

any experience with TSA at the airports? Those scanners should find that device and given that I am travelling a lot I don't want to be stuck in a country for having such a thing.
[NFC Hacking] BWolf56:
While I don't really know about TSA rules and such, you phone already have an NFC tag so having one in your hand doesn't really change much. Plus it needs permissions to access something.
[NFC Hacking] dimex:
lol, please. I've flown 5 times since and had zero issues.
[NFC Hacking] nand.96:
Isnt it real life trolling!?? Reading the title nd afterwards reading ur post i was like what is going on here!!!Tech in my body..just for some security issues..never bro never! Tech needs to leave something for us in real life! :meh:
[NFC Hacking] andreavda:
can you store some text on the chip if you wanted to ? how much bytes ?
[NFC Hacking] MathewBrack:
You'll be pleased to know that they aren't picked up by security. Either through the metal detectors or the x-ray scanners. They are to small
[NFC Hacking] MathewBrack:
The price etc are all in the first post :)

yes whilst you are still growing it is not advisable to get one as their is a strong likelihood it may migrate which is not advisable if it migrates out or towards a bone, also if you add more mass between the skin and implant as you grow it may not be within range of a reader.

Also any piercer who agrees to implant a child probably shouldn't be implanting anyone at all.
[NFC Hacking] MathewBrack:
These tags are 888 bytes. So just under 888 characters :)
[NFC Hacking] andreavda:
there is no way you wouldn't look cool wearing this implant xD opening doors, phones, just with a swipe of your hand, let's just hope in the future the potential applications of this chip are more and more.

Actually I voted NO at the poll, before I even read the thread, but if I'm honest I'm giving this a good amount of thought.

I was wondering, if for any reason you wanted to remove it, can you do it easily ?
[NFC Hacking] MathewBrack:
Yes you can remove it easily, removing it is the same concept as removing the contraceptive implant for women and the majority of GPs will be happy to do it. Numb the area, make a tiny cut, lift it out with tweezers, then apply a plaster.

But PLEASE do go to a doctor. It'll only take 30 seconds to do and I in no way recommend anyone removing one themselves
[NFC Hacking] opethianskies:
First tattoes, then earrings, and piercings, now the NFC implant... People are trying to robotize (yes I derivated that word) themselves... Why??

Why we are soooo much connected to technology...

No I will never have an implant or some digital something, even if it's used to change all the world, close the lights, start the car or etc.

I'm human guys...We are human...
[NFC Hacking] javelinanddart:
Thanks. $100. Not bad at all. However by the time I stop growing, WAY better things will be out :)

I'm excited!!!!
[NFC Hacking] dimex:
You're not going to make any headway continuing to post in this thread. Run along.
[NFC Hacking] kyleco:
Use Area?

I'm STRONGLY contemplating getting one of these, but my biggest concern is the radius in which the tag works. At first I though it was on the palm side, but now I see they implant it on the back of the hand. Does the tag reach the front of your hand(If I'm holding my phone in my palm, will it read through my hand to the tag)? Can I put my palm to my company's card reader and have it read or do I have go around back-handing everything to get it to read?

Thanks!
[NFC Hacking] dimex:
Back-hand, I think the physics of it would make any other reading impossible. Normal NFC tags have a very very short range outside the body. Then throw in degradation of signal through bone, muscle, and fat of the human body.
[NFC Hacking] kyleco:
That's exactly what I was thinking and what I was concerned about. More contemplation needed before I make the plunge. Thanks for the quick reply.
[NFC Hacking] Mike Cross:
More advanced implants are being developed. Body implanted technology to correct deficiencies is a great thing and a no going back trip.

Now, for people in their full integrity, the debate is open. I'm not particularly surprised. I expected it actually.

PS: Waiting for the day we can connect to our Androids via ADB using a finger! XD
[NFC Hacking] MathewBrack:
It is highly inadvisable to have one implanted in your palm as in an emergency situation that requires you to grab something hard. falling and grabbing the banister etc you'd likely shatter it.

it may seem awkward to have one in the back of your hand however a few hours after implanting it, you can hit your nfc reader on your phone everytime.

as far as card readers for printers and doors go, placing the back of your hand near the scanner and rotating your wrist picks it up everytime, after the first few times you dont even think about it any more
[NFC Hacking] kyleco:
Yea, I read up on the site that you had linked in OP and read about the risks of placing in the palm/placing anywhere else, definitely wouldn't try that. My biggest concern is that I had a UCL tear on my left hand(the hand I would want to implant that) and since then that thumb has always been a little finicky. I may need to wait until they come up with a different place to implant it. I will be watching this thread closely though!
[NFC Hacking] opethianskies:
Well but this technology, makes you more and more lazier than ever, you don't have to use the key, use the nfc on your wrist... and less thinking... I mean "less usage of brain" .

And IMO not worth 100 bucks.

---------- Post added at 10:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:46 PM ----------

don't be a fanboy dude, I just said my opinion.
[NFC Hacking] MathewBrack:
I have known several people to have them placed in the back of your wrist although I can not vouch for its practicality, I also know of someone who had it placed in the fleshy side part of your hand opposite your thumb, this actually makes it easier to open door controls
[NFC Hacking] dimex:
Communicating effectively, with proper use of the English language, is a life-long skill and something you obviously have yet to develop. As a student about to start veterinary medical college, I severely doubt that my NFC implant prevents me from utilizing my brain.

Your argument is so ridiculous, I don't even know where to begin. Maybe being open-minded and considering things outside the "norm" could serve you well; could make you smarter. Seems like you need it.
[NFC Hacking] opethianskies:
Well not only prevents you utilizing brain but makes you bound to it, I see now... I'm really open minded to new things, but this is extreme dude. Having something on my body that doesn't belong there, it's not normal, if it's normal for you, it's ok for me... And using proper language of English doesn't make you smarter, as your NFC implant.

This will begin like this...

First you will get your NFC implant,

Then you will have RAM into your brain,

May be some Memory Cards then...

Some extra things into body to make you communicate without using the mobile phone...

Well...

You're your mobile phone now...

My point is if you want a NFC Tag to use with your mobile, Get a Tag, in your wallet... NOT on your Body.
[NFC Hacking] MathewBrack:
its not all about reducing work, however isn't that the purpose of most technology?

Looking over a shoulder you can easily see a password or pattern lock.

No need to carry an ID card or pull it of my wallet just to put it back seconds later, just scan my hand and go.

I get that they are not for everyone however for some of us they have become an integral part of our daily lives.
[NFC Hacking] opethianskies:
Integral part of your daily lives?? That's what I meant dude, This is addiction to technology, you can't live without your NFC implant anymore... Sorry for you.

There are hand readers, eye readers for that purpose dude... No I'm not accepting this, even if it's becoming widespread...

Maybe you should all disconnect your internet, power off your phone, and read a book in silence without any technology.

"WARNING This kit definitely contains dangerous things. The xNT transponder device has not been tested or certified by any regulatory agency for implantation or use inside the human body. Use of this device is strictly at your own risk."

This can be lethal, and you recommend to this to the people...Shame!
[NFC Hacking] papped:
Saying it hasn't been formally tested by certain agencies and covering your ass for general liability isn't the same as saying it can be lethal...
[NFC Hacking] skyguy126:
Wow! Makes me wonder how far technology has come...
[NFC Hacking] MathewBrack:
Aye, it's a brave new world out there
[NFC Hacking] skyguy126:
Yeah and for all the haters out there, this will be the future sooner or later, and personally I'm not looking into getting one but I can see where it really helps people out...
[NFC Hacking] dimex:
Let's stop feeding the troll. I apologize for even talking to him. This thread can go off the rails quick if we keep responding to him.

For those of you contemplating an implant, let me tell you the current status with Android and NFC unlock. I research this stuff just about every day and there hasn't been much leeway yet on Lollipop.

If you're staying on KitKat with Xposed, NFC unlock will work great. You can install the NFC LockScreenOff Enabler module which allows you to set NFC polling with screen off. That way you can just tap your phone to your implant and it takes you right to the homescreen.

On Lollipop, things suck. The new smart lock with NFC sounds nice, but first you have to turn the screen on. Then it scans for your tag. Then, once it authorizes your tag you're presented with another keyguard that you have to swipe away. It's stupid, time consuming, and makes unlocking your phone twice as long. Plus, it's an awkward motion when the phone's resting on your implant to try and then swipe with your index finger (if you can picture that). To summarize:

KitKat: Place phone on implant with screen off. Profit.

Lollipop: Place phone on implant. Touch Power button. Wait for phone to authorize. Swipe screen.

Secure Settings/Tasker's Keyguard function does not work with Lollipop anymore based on a bunch of factors, so if you disable Keyguard scanning your implant (using NFC Locale plugin with Tasker), it will break the ROM. The screen will go black and nav bar buttons will become useless. You then have to reboot.

All the NFC unlock apps suck at the moment, IMO. If you search for Smart Unlock on XDA, you can read up on that app. It looks promising and I hope they introduce NFC functionality soon.

So unless you plan to stay on KitKat/Xposed and you're definitely planning to set up an RFID/NFC deadbolt or car unlock system, the novelty of it may wear off fairly quick. I'm hoping the future will bring an NFC/RFID/BTLE chip that you can recharge at night through wireless charging or something. That way, the bluetooth low energy could serve as your smart unlock. When you're outside the radius of your phone (would probably be a short distance), then the phone would lock up.

Just my 2 cents. If there's an active developer who gets an implant, maybe things will move faster. However, I'm no developer, just a tinkerer.
[NFC Hacking] weidnerj:
You might check out www.incontrolha.com for Zwave software. I use that for my home automation and there is the option to use NFC on an Android device (client) to setup a scene, say to unlock your door. Not as handy as having a NFC reader by your door but maybe not a bad solution either. And IncontrolHA is pretty powerful too.

Hi,

I've been thinking about this on and off for a while now. Is it possible to clone existing NFC cards to the chip? I was thinking about cloning my bus card to my hand (as well as using to unlock things).

So, as long as we don't get an implant in our right hand, or on our foreheads, we're good, and we aren't aligned with a fictional character?
[NFC Hacking] ImitableBeatle:
Not trying to be rude but let's not turn this into something completely different than what this forum was intended for.

Now with that in mind =) if I was to get a chip could someone scan it and their phone would open the Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, etc... app and be directed to my or a company's page?
[NFC Hacking] MathewBrack:
You can clone the records held on nfc tags yes, mifare cards you cannot. As your bus card is more than likely protected you will not just be able to just copy it across for security reasons. If this were the case what would be stopping you copying anyone's card.

The bus company however may be willing to help out and add your implant to their system . This is some thing you would have to take up with them
[NFC Hacking] MathewBrack:
Yes, this is easy (1 min set up time MAX) . I can add this to the original post in the morning for you with step by step instructions
[NFC Hacking] dimex:
I'm glad you reread your post. Maybe you should reread the article, because you completely missed the mark (no pun intended).

Yes, you can write anything you would write to a normal NFC tag, from commands, to URLs, to vCards.
[NFC Hacking] ImitableBeatle:
Awesome! And on that note I'm getting a chip but on a round Android pin. Once I can use that chip more often during my daily life I'll just copy it over to an implant and off to Samsung deadbolts!

Good point. A possible physiological reaction caused by the "mark":

How did it go?

If you have the time please post your story :)
[NFC Hacking] MathewBrack:
The first post now has had my talk from March Of The Droids on NFC implants added
[NFC Hacking] Emba4:
It all went well mostly, the implant is in and works perfectly but I have learned that all mifare access systems are not created equal, the one at my work is an act system which uses mifare classic tags with a serial number on and the ultralight c in the implant is not compatible, not the end of the world but it would have been nice to have it.
[NFC Hacking] MathewBrack:
I have not come across this incompatibility yet, and I have made note of it in the first post. As with many emerging technologies, lessons such as this are often only learnt empirically for which I and the community thank you.

I am however glad that everything else is going well for you.

Did you experience any pain at all with the implantation and what do you use your new tag for?
[NFC Hacking] Emba4:
No pain at all really just a sharp scratch from the needle. currently I'm just using it for log on on my desktop and intend to mod a reader into the palmrest of my laptop, further on once my bike arrives I want to setup the garage with an NFC lock, can't do the house sadly as we have PVC doors
[NFC Hacking] hardcoremildred:
I used to have mine in the 'standard' location at the back of the hand.

Then, well, I 'played' a little bit to much with it, so it flipped over the edge between thump and index.

So, now it is located somewhere really inside my palm. Can't touch or feel it anymore, can't really locate it anymore.

But works fine.

If you put yours on the back of your hand, you'll have to switch your hand every time.
[NFC Hacking] MathewBrack:
That cannot have been implanted correctly at all, I can't even imagine how this could be implanted in a way that made this possible
