Re: Android App for resetting/writing blank ntags

Hi, Thanks for providing such a great tool.

May i ask what is the latest FW on the Da Vinci minimaker that is able to work with the above tool? I just got the printer and it requested me to update to the latest FW. Will i have any issue updating it?

Can you please share with me what is your current FW bulid on the minimaker?

Thanks in advance.

Re: Android App for resetting/writing blank ntags

Just keep it blocked from the internet and it will not know there is an update for it. Also unless an update claims to fix an issue you are having it is best not to update as they often in the case of XYZ break things.

Re: Android App for resetting/writing blank ntags

Hello,

The 1.40 work with the new firmware 2.4.4 for Da Vinci Jr. 1.0 ?

Thank you

Re: Android App for resetting/writing blank ntags

This App and EmuTag/PaperTag/MagicCard work all firmware independently.

Everything you should consider:
- If a UID / serial number combination does not work, create a new combination, or use a new paper tag
- After creating new the Tag data and installation into the printer, do not change any parameters anymore
- Sometimes you have to exclude the printer and software from internet

Re: Android App for resetting/writing blank ntags

Thanks for all the replies.

Hi Modfreakz,

Thanks for your confirmation that it should work for all FWs.

My issue is that this Da Vinci MiniMaker printer seem to have a very old FW so i would like to update to the latest, but worried that it would break the Tag.

I currently only have 1 tag and is waiting for more tag to come before i update the FWs. smile

In your reply, "Sometimes you have to exclude the printer and software from internet", can you explain why it is sometimes and not all the time?

Thanks.

The reason you want to block your printer from the internet is to keep it from updating the firmware on it. By blocking it from the internet you keep it from checking for newer version and updating to them.

He meant sometimes as in with some printers such as XYZ machines you want to block them but you may not want to block others.

Re: Android App for resetting/writing blank ntags

Ah, I see.

Re: Android App for resetting/writing blank ntags

Hi All,

Thanks.

I had used a dedicated laptop and this minimaker is offline, but on a few of my initial prints i see that the printer behaves strangely. so i just want to update the FW to 1.1.5 (before 1.0.x) and see if it make a difference.

Last night i have updated the FW to 1.1.5 and the tag is still recognized and i believe it will still print ok. I have not tried to print new print.

Thanks.

Re: Android App for resetting/writing blank ntags

Nice tool, but, work this with DaVinci Nano? Thanks.

Re: Android App for resetting/writing blank ntags

Just bought some NTAGs.  Before I buy third party filament I want to see if I can successfully flash them and determine how the printer acts with an empty spool.  I am currently using a DaVinci Mini and I also want to see how well the spool holder will handle the larger/heavier spools (300m vs 200m).

Thank you very much for the R&D that you all put into the solution to the tyranny XYZ has committed in forcing us to buy from a sole supplier.

Re: Android App for resetting/writing blank ntags

I recieved my NTAGs in the mail.  I was eager to see how this worked, but when I open the NTAG Refill Tool it says "waiting for TAG scanning..."  I placed a tag against my phone and even pulled the card out of the spool hub and placed it against my phone as well.  I have a Droid Turbo 2 with the NFC enabled.  Not sure why I cannot get past this point.

EDIT:
I needed to move the Tag.  I apologize.  Simple and effective tool!

Re: Android App for resetting/writing blank ntags

Sorry disturbing you.
Thank you for your great work modfreakz.
I've just bought the NTAG and I'm waiting for the delivery.
In the meantime I would like to have some hints from you about third part PLA filament for a Da Vinci Mini W.

I've red the previous posts and I've searchd for a seller for the Inland PLA, but unfortunately Amazon dooesn't sell it in Italy.
Have you any other suggestions for other PLA brand please?
Thks in advance and a great hug to you for your work!!!

I'm not modfreakz, but here's my 2 cents: any PLA will work just fine as long as it's 1.75mm and 190-210 temp. The suggestions are mostly with regards to print quality, not compatibility. Since you're from Italy and we're not sure what's available there, try and ask around what people prefer to use there locally. If they can get good prints (with other printers) from the filament and it matches the specs I mentioned earlier, you should get good results with it from your Mini W as well.

Re: Android App for resetting/writing blank ntags

Thank you so much Vrael for your kind reply.
I'll try to ask around.

Have a nice print!

Re: Android App for resetting/writing blank ntags

Help me please!
NTAGs just arrived but something is going wrong.
I can program them, my Da Vinci mini W recognize the tag as valid, but when I try to print a message error says that is not a genuine cartridge.
I use just the "random serial number option", because if I use the "random UID" alone or with the "serial number" option, a message error occurred (Failed: Transceive failed. Not EmuTAG or possibly the EmuTAG is in Locked Mode).
I've also disconnected internet but this not helps.
Any hints?
Please.

Re: Android App for resetting/writing blank ntags

Sounds like you have placed this tag in your printer multiple times with different values. Once the printer sees the tag you CAN NOT make any changes to it.

You r problem is if you are using paper tags then you DO NOT create a random UID. The UID is already on the tag. You need to create the password, Pack Code and other relevant information on the tag.

Re: Android App for resetting/writing blank ntags

hi, i installed reeltool 21 apk on my Samsung s5 phone got some nfc 213 tags and
all i get is "NFC is not enabled. please go to wireless  settings to enable it"
can some one let me know what i am doing wrong , why the app not reading the tag,
anyone's input would be appreciated.

223

Re: Android App for resetting/writing blank ntags

Thanks for your kind reply Bozotclown1970.
I've continued my "experiments" with this fantastic tool.
Finally I've found the correct parameters to use with my Da vinci mini W (firmware 1.2.7).
NO expert mode; PLA; black; "valid serial number" checked; 200 mt.
Now finally I'm printing.
P.s.: Do not configure the wireless settings on the printer. I use a usb connection with the PC always connectec and always sounds good.

Thank you so much to this fantastic group and expecially to the tool creator.

Re: Android App for resetting/writing blank ntags

I have almost no experience with Android and I got one just for this. Can someone explain to me why neither of these apps will open on my phone? When I open them, they just flash and then close.

Does your phone have NFC capability. Not all Android phones have an NFC reader/writer. Go into the network settings and see if there is an option to turn NFC off and on. If not then you need another phone that needs NFC capability.
