i have a trap that give me the "something wrong with toy" screen in trap team.. and when i use the tool it read, and says the trap is whirlwind from ssa, that dont make sense... so how do i reset this trap?..

what is the "key entry"?.. do i need a key to reset a trap??.. anyone here that can tell me what to do?...

finally!... i found out after hours of detective work, i got the key file i suggest to make the program use its own fonts and not depend on the window fonts. i changed my windows fonts and couldnt fit the password to make the keyfile. so i read 10 pages of posts here and was lucky to find out what was wrong, this should not be needed..

but damn... that reset didnt do nothing, the magic trap still say it is a whirlwind figure from ssa. i hoped to reset the data clean from the trap, and then write it with another magic trap data that i backed up from my other magic trap... if i need to do a raw dump and edit with a hex editor or something, i need help with that.. any of you experts around here???

i cant send the trap to activision for replacement anymore, and its a rare trap. so it would be good to get it working as it suppose to. and not show up as 'something wrong with the toy' in the game.

if you give link to dump with your trap i will try to help you with this

It can't hurt, by my guess is, this is futile.

The toy type is read incorrectly. Instead of a trap it is detected as a figure (incidentally Whirlwind has the ID 0). The ID is stored in the read-only parts of the chip and there is no way pyrofers (or any other) tool can change that.

This trap seems genuinely broken and if replacing it through activision is no option, you are probably out of luck.

Yes , when i had seen dump of this trap i was Shocked...
it was all zero in block 01 ....ah; its first time i see so unbelievable dump !!

yes, its impossible fix, because its broken data in read only area

and now its clear why it look like whirlwind in Gui Tools..)
Because Whirlwind have zero type and subtype of figure)

thanks for the info kiriluksa..

I am trying to make a Backup of my trap Collection. I am Using the Editor v2. The Portal / Software Works Fine with the figures but not with the traps.
Which Portal / Software is compatible ?

Thanks for your help

traps have another checksums then figures and Editor dont work correct with traps
and Editor often have problem with portal connection on Windows

why you dont use Skylanders Gui Tools from this thread? it havent all this problems

here is what was on my broken trap when read in skylander tool...


here is what my trap looked after it was fixed...


trap working in game again


big thanks goes to kiriluksa for the help in saving this trap and not giving up

At first I did not even notice , but then I saw that the figure still did not locked from factory (still have status read-write)
so it was possible to rewrite all factory data
It was a chance one in a million!

I glad that trap work for you now
Have fun!

Do you know where I can find skylander driver ? My PC doesn't detect any portal :/

Thank you

I hope this isn't taboo here. Does anyone know the technical specifications of the NFC/RFID tags used in toys to life figures?

Did someone tried the "skydumper" tool ?
https://github.com/capull0/SkyDumper

The tool "skyreader" is available too
https://github.com/silicontrip/SkyReader

unfortunately my c++ skill is 0%

Can someone PM the key file?

And is there any other editor that also allows you to edit the quests?

Are there Windows or OS X builds out there for SkyReader or SkyDumper?

Anyone know if it's possible to change the unique id of the figures? I mean if i have two crash bandicoot they have different unique id. I haven't looked on the dump but will be possible to change it?

edit. pyro say it's really hard to do

How important is it to make a raw dump of each figure versus doing a standard dump? Can the standard dump be used for duplicating onto another RFID tag? I just want to save myself the trouble since I have to back up my collection yet again after foolishly deleting my old database. Though, if the raw dump is ultimately better, I'll just stick with that.

thanks for updating this useful tool

Is there a tool to repair a skylander figure ?
My figure (Nitro freeze blade) ist showing up in the Skylanders GUI software from Pyrofer correctly.
But in the game the games says: problem with the toy ...
