Hi Karsten,
The problem lies on the Omnikey reader configuration. It usually supports T=0 and T=1 protocols. But if I use the NFC Handy the mifare cards are not recognized as T=CL is not supported by the device rather it is emulated by the Synchronous card API provided by Omnikey. To use this feature one has to enter a new registers key called ControlFlags inside HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE-CurrentControlSet-Control-Cardman-RFID  and give a Dword value of 4. Then the reader is able to read the ATR of the NFC. I have a feeling this creates a new registry entry which is not visible under the name "OMNIKEY Cardman 5x21-CL 0". I may be wrong, but I did the above steps to read the NFC using the reader in Nokia 6131 SDK.

cheers
