Answer 1

The maximum transceive length refers to the capabilities of the NFC in the Android device. It seems the device cannot send data via IsoDep. What kind of device is it? Are you running a custom ROM?

Answer 2

The Tag INfo app may derive the Maximum Transceive Length from the MBLI attribute.
MBLI = Max. Buffer Length Index. It is the upper nibble of the first byte of ATTRIB Response. Some Type B tags have 0 in this nibble which means 'No information provided'.

For some indication of what you're looking for, you could use the 'Max Frame Size', given by the 'Protocol Info' section of the tag's ATQB response. See page 19 of this reference. Your options (in bytes) are 16,24,32,40,48,64,96,128,256
