[Release] TagMo : Tool for creating/editing Amiibos (2024)

What is TagMo:

TagMo Android app for which allows cloning Amiibos using blank NTAG215 NFC tags. It was created as a result of the "DIY Amiibo cards" thread and all the collaboration that took place in it.
​

How does it work/Features:

• Write dump files from legitimate Amiibos into an NTAG215 NFC in a way that WiiU/3DS devices will consider the NFC tag to be a legitimate Amiibo with the same functionality.
• Save data of a tag to a file and restore it to the same or different Amiibo/Clone provided they are of the same character/game/series.
• Beta feature: Edit some parameters of a SSB type amiibo allowing you to change special effects, stats etc.

Limitations:

• Currently only Amiibos are supported Skylander or other figurines are not supported.
• Only NTAG215 tags can be used to clone Amiibos. no other type (eg: NTAG216/NTAG213) are supported.
• You will require the key files used in the Amiibo encryption. Please don't PM me about them as I am unable to share them. The thread linked above may help you find them.
• Once an NFC tag is converted to an Amibo it's type can no longer be altered. For all intents and purposes it's features and limitations will be the same as a legitimate Amiibo. So yes this can not replace Amiiqo or other Amiibo emulator devices please don't waste your time arguing about it.
• Sadly only android phones are supported.

Requirements:

• Amiibo Key Files. (See limitations/Don't ask me for these)

• Some blank NTAG 215 tags (Ebay/Aliexpress)
• Android phone with NFC (Tested on Nexus 5 running Android Lollipop)
• Amiibo dumps or real Amiibos which you can copy. (Don't ask me for these)

OMG that smash feature is awesome! Is there any way to modify those values from the mii fighters in the game save file? Not under the amiibos, but the custom mii fighters?

==edit==
By the way, when I try to save a tag file, it keeps saying, Error writing to file... download..xxx.bin Open failed, EACCESS Permission denied.

Should this app be requesting root privilages or what else can I do from my end?

I can confirm that tags from this amazon seller work: https://www.amazon.com/Ntag-215-Bla...e=UTF8&qid=1466475968&sr=8-1&keywords=ntag215

Every one I've made so far works like a charm!

Yeah, I keep getting the same issue.

I did not experience this problem but I remember reading from somewhere, you need to grant file permission to the app.

This is the solution. I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S7, so this may vary for those using a different phone.

Go to your Settings, then Applications>Application manager>TagMo>Permissions, then switch on "Storage".

Sorry about that. I've release 2.3.1 which should fix the issue. It will ask you for permissions on startup of the app.

B.T.W. Pecrow, I've added a check to warn when NFC is turned off specially for you .

Works well. My only wish is to be able to choose where the bin is saved when you save tag, along with being able to rename it before saving. My downloads folder is a mess and I have to save the tag, then go into a file manager and move/rename it every time. I'm not forcing you to, but I do recommend it as it would be very useful. So far I've only tested tag scan, tag save, and tag restore. I'm going to test the SSB editing later, and once I buy a few NTAGs I'll be able to test card creation. I can see this being very useful for when I want to play with amiibos at a friends house but don't want to drag all of my amiibos over to do so.

The save folder customization is something I hope to do soon. It's bugging me as well. Not sure about renaming part but i would atleast try to give more sensible names to them and make them not overwrite existing files.

SSB Editing works perfect, I wish I knew what the special ./<>/^/v meant, but it works perfectly

Sorry about that. UI design is hard and I suck at it.
. means the normal special (just b without any directions)
<> means special with sideways
^ is special up
V is special down.

Not all special numbers work with all characters so its a bit of a trial and error. it would be great if we can document what each number means.

Also editing Mii is another todo thing in my list.
