hf mf dump needs robust enhancement #200
Comments
I suggest writing your own dump-command in lua, where you can add better reading block, and retry that block read until you are satisfied. I did that for tnp-dump.lua script. |
Select card timeout, interrupt the dump process.
Hmm, I think what I write confused you, my original meaning is if select card timeout, retry the select function, if failed more than 3 times, interrupt the dump process
Agree, small enhancement requires lots of work, may be not worthful. |
Do you get these "select card time outs" with different cards or is it certain types? |
Hmm, I must admit that the card I am using is bad quality, but these message might occurs more frequently with the card age. for my experience, one of my card used 4 years, dump success around 40%, 2 years magic card only hits 20% success. May be enlarge the timeout value might reduce the fail rate, not sure yet. Under this situation, I think this enhancement is worthful. |
Have you tried with a stronger HF antenna if you still get those timeouts? |
Dont't have strong HF antenna currently, can not do the experiment |
there are some suggestions on the forum on how to build a HF antenna. Can't hurt testing with a stronger antenna. I don't have these time outs so I can't verify it. |
How did it go with a stronger antenna? |
Sorry for missing days, quite busy recently , no yet finished. |
No need to buy a stronger antenna, its quite easy to build one yourself. Check the antenna section of the forum for guides (or the wiki) |
Is that the Radiowars dual antenna? It should connect to the pm3 board somehow? Whats your voltages? (paste the output from "hw tune" w/o card on antennas) |
|
with LF/MF mixed Card
|
LF part looks great. With 15v HF, the positioning / placment of tag over the antenna becomes more vital. |
And I see you use @buggii 's pre-compiled distro, v2.5.0, which is quite old. (one year or more) |
How to detect which voltage is the best choice, any instruction to determine the antenna quality?
I could compile it under mac os, with the latest firmware, and latest program, but I normally using proxmark3 in windows environment,(No experience with windows compile) if I am using the latest build, without satisfied win32 program, not sure what might happens:P The best choice is offically push the build to the next step, depends you, iceman. haha |
There is many posts on the forum about antennas. I leave it up to you to find and read about it. You have to use the same firmware (flashed on device) as the client you are running from the same build. Use your mac instead for windows. There is a homebrew tap, there is a docker container, you find something to use. As long as it allows you to pull the latest source from github and compile, you are fine. |
this issue occasionally annoys me as well. i might have a look at it when i find time. |
@marshmellow42 tired of LF again? ;) |
Hmm, it sounds like everyone is annoyed by these two issues, but compare with coding work, normally we choose to adapt it. |
While using proxmark3 to dump cards, found the dump process require some lucky
Especially on some bad quality card.
During the dump process, once the command timeout, the whole process is interrupted, need to repeat again, and depends on the lucky again.
I think these enhancement could be done:
as the dumpdata.bin is written by the end of hf mf dump, probably method 1 and 2 could be easily implemented.
To implement method 3, more work might be done.
Anyone agree, or agree PR could be submitted?
:P
