SimpleMFRC522 authentication issues with NTAG213 nfc tag

[camerontaylor139]

Hi everyone, I have an RFID-RC522 scanner, and NTAG213 NFC tags that I was wanting to read and write data on and off. However any time I try to run write to them, I get the following error

Code: Select all

AUTH ERROR!!
AUTH ERROR(status2reg & 0x08) !=0

I was hoping someone might have some solutions for working around this at all. I am using the SimpleMFRC522 library if that helps. Many thanks!

Not convinced the software supports those cards - there are lots of errors for them over the years.

You could try this fork https://github.com/mikicaivosevic/MFRC522-python but I would change the tags or library totally TBH
