Question

Is it possible to write data to specific blocks in memory on the NfcV (ISO 15693) tag? E.g. write data to block# 5 or any specific block#.

Answer 1

The exact details depend on which ISO 15693 compatible chip is inside the tag. The ISO 15693-3 standard lists different write commands. Support for these are all optional, so your tag may support one or more of these or even use a proprietary command for writing data. I would recommend to look up the datasheet of the chip and/or acquire the ISO standard to find out what the right command is.

Once you know what the right command is, you can simply pass the bytes of the command in a byte array to the NfcV.transceive() method. (Usually the command bytes consist of a flag byte, followed by a write command byte, one or more block bytes and the data bytes to be written.)
