The good news is that our forum is open source so if you are really motivated to do it you are very welcome to hack on it yourself :)

Ha! If it was C# and Silverlight I'd take you up on that, but chances are it is javascript which ranks right up there on my 'languages I hate' list :)

antennas seem to work great !
Good video

I have the same problem. I soved this problem just soldering two wires in the IRQ and RSTO ports of elctohouse module, and connecting respective in digital ports 2 and 3. looks like this

@Chris I got the email and everything is working now!! Thank you!

@Frederic that's expected behaviour pretty much.
Your Mileage May Vary with a case.
It basically depends on how well the manufacturer has implemented NFC in your device. If they do it poorly then you get a poor result with the ring.

Yea lots of progress but nothing concrete enough to share yet! @jasok2

Reports have been mixed with that one. Do you have one or are you looking at getting one?

I'm cross-posting with https://forum.nfcring.com/topic/683/nfc-reader-writer-for-windows/20 as this thread is about the same topic.

I'm Maxime from ISLOG and we just put John's advices in practice (he tried our RFID Logon solution months ago and wasn't completely pleased with it previous state).
ISLOG Logon is now available freely for personal use under ISLOG Logon NFC Community package.

You can download it here :
64-bit: http://download.islog.com/islog/4.0/NG/ISLOG Logon NFC Community-4.7.0708-x64.exe
32-bit: http://download.islog.com/islog/4.0/NG/ISLOG Logon NFC Community-4.7.0708-x86.exe

This is a first version for feedback, please be gentle :). No data encryption for now but it will come.

It unfortunately cannot be open-sourced because we have to re-architecture a lot the current codebase to do so (some modules are shared with our commercial product) which is too much investment for our small team right now. So except there is something like thousands of requests we will not do it, sorry. Small comfort, part of it is already open source like the RFID / NFC middleware https://github.com/islog/liblogicalaccess

EDIT: see https://forum.nfcring.com/topic/782/islog-logon-windows-nfc-login

The PM function is still available, you click the little chat bubble in the top right if you're on the desktop site. If you're on the mobile site there should be a menu feature that allows you to access it.

I can understand your disappointment at not receiving exactly what you ordered. My entire order was also changed, but the rings still perform and I still use them to unlock my android device, start my car and will be hacking on a door unlocking device soon (and modifying my electronically locking gun safe when I get a chance).
The changes and the reasons behind them were well documented here, on kickstarter, on the blog, and @johnyma22 has spoken at length about them on #nfcring freenode, and the frustrations involved.
So if you want to react this way and walk away from a functional device that performs well because your own particular order wasn't perfect that's fine - I can completely understand why you would turn other 'hackers' away due to aesthetic irritation.

@jasok2 Its now happened just once with the 1 Feburary update.

I had to edit a previous post, apparently I've used too many links and am getting flagged as spam in new posts... sigh.

Heh, I guess that'd do it too!
I just got my microview units so I'm going to be altering the car starter to incorporate one of those instead of the microduino, the microview has an inbuilt oled display, so I'll be able to do something nifty with that instead of the big string of LEDs across the dash to show mode.

Awesome, @vaticanuk, glad to hear it!

Carrunstate is just an arbitrary counter for which mode the arduino should be in. Handbrake state is the only input that's of any importance in that sketch - but wasn't working properly. Possibly my code is crap.

If You need NFC Smart Lock then watchlock.com is right place.

@jasok2 I don't see any reason for that. Probably the way we encode credential information and the way FitBit detect the tag which is similar. I don't know if this is documented somewhere on FitBit?

Otherwise a new 4.8.0515 version was released (minor bug fixes release) ;).

hi group,

i would use it to store game data combined with the nfc game kids like my free system:
NFC Playing Figures / Lego´
where you can make interactive playing systems.

or even with the new lego dimension system:
Lego Dimensions RFID/NFCSystem

so it is possible to meet together and come to you playingstate with one short handmovement.

sunny wishes,
Alex

Hi Parviz, sadly I don't sell any prototype due to legal responsability, if you only need to unlock the car by NFC, you can follow this easy step by step tutorial: http://www.instructables.com/id/NFC-Car-Door-Control/

Bye,
Pierre

@Twyst Afaik it's likely you are having issues with case sensitivity of your email address, can you try a few variants to see if you can find one that works? If you are still struggling bump this thread and your support ticket.

I'm in Japan again for a while. Hopefully today I can go and source some tiny NFC reader from Akihabara and then continue working on it this weekend (its a long weekend in Japan). I'll definitely post a video when i've made some more progress. I'll also update the github. But now that I've got this idea, I'm going to move the credential provider part of the service as a main part, rather than as a plugin so that it makes more sense to use this so suspend plugin processing (so that swiping a ring with an RDP credential prompt up doesnt lock your local machine instead of passing the login). Otherwise i'd have to make a more complex rules engine for processing plugins

i.e. you'd "activate" a plugin to run "only when the machine is logged in" and set the order that they ran and also make one be able to stop processing all of the others. and this might have to be registered on a "per ring" basis.
so
check ring
-> get list of plugins
-> get machine state (locked, unlocked, awaiting credential)
-> run plugins in order
-> check plugin result, and stop processing plugins if required

Its all doable. I'll work on it and post an update when i've made a decision for how I want to do things.
