Welcome! This Github repository hosts the open source files for the MagicBand + Light commands that I have compiled into a app for the Flipper Zero, so you can have your own light show at home!

This will detail:

• How you can set it up
• The details of it
• What each command means
• How to get it on Android if you don't have a FZ

And other information of course!

Download the app first:

https://github.com/Haw8411/magic-band-plus-lights/releases/download/v1.0.0/magicband_plus_lights.fap (or on the Flipper App)

Part 1: What is this app anyway?

At Disney World or Disney Land, they use something called bluetooth beacons. That basically is when it is advertising a BLE command that the MagicBands pick up. In that command, the MagicBand is told multiple things:

• What the type of lights it should show (Color pallate, rotating, single, dual pallate & more)
• What the color of the lights should be
• Vibration
• How long should it stay on (if it fades)

This app holds all current known MagicBand BLE Commands.

Part 2: How can I install it?

There is 2 ways - both require downloading the .fap from the releases on this repository.

This app can be put wherever you want in the Flipper's directory, but since it is a Bluetooth application, I recommend you put it in the Bluetooth folder.

You can put it in by 2 ways: qFlipper or the Flipper mobile app.

Android

"Well, I don't have a Flipper Zero, but you mentioned it working on a Android?"

It is VERY possible to get everything running & working on a Android - though, I am not going to make a Android application that hosts the commands This means you will have to manually input the Bluetooth codes & add them.

But how can I do that? It's fairly easy to setup - you only need one app: nRF Connect. You can download this from the Google Play store.

Well, what do I do now?

1. Open the application
2. Go to the Advertiser tab
3. Click the "+" button in the bottom right corner
4. Make the display name whatever you want
5. Keep all the options off, but add a record: Manufacturer Data
6. The Company ID is 0183
7. The "Data" is the Bluetooth code you get from this website:
8. I reccomend adding the "Trigger" first so you can ping the MagicBand.
9. That's it! Slide the toggle on, and you don't need to change any of the data there.

Why don't the lights come on???

This can be due to multiple things - one specifically being the MagicBand off or it's battery is dead. You will need to turn it on/charge it for this to work.

But it still doesn't work!

Sometimes it takes a while to turn on. Especially with the Flipper.

The best thing that I have noticed is to double tap it - when your spinning color comes up, start it (Flipper) or enable it (Android). That has been the "solution"

Can I modify it & add my own hex codes that I found?

Yes! This project is open source and avalible to everyone, so feel free to do whatever.

Where did you find all of the BLE codes?

There is a post on a website called emcot.world that has all of the codes that I have put in the app.

And that's it!
