Felica Card Error: Area or Service specified by the command cannot be accessed

Question

I am using javax.smartcardio library to access my Felica card. I am able to get the ID of the felica card without any error. When I try to write a block to Felica card, I am getting the following status flag.

0xA5: Area or Service specified by the command cannot be accessed.

Here is the format of the command apdu I am using,

FF 00 00 00 D4 40 01 08 <8 bytes of ID> 01 < number of blocks 01> <16 bytes sof data>

The response I am getting is: D5 41 00 <8 bytes of ID> 01 A5

The status flag2-A5 is the error specifying 'Area or Service specified by the command cannot be accessed.'

Answer 1

After discussing with the Felica manufacturing team, I found that the card was empty and that's the reason I can't write/read the block.
