Such you also cannot change the ATR. Further the ATR is stored within program code space not within file system space. Program code cannot be changed from within card application. The only way to change the program code is by reloading the same or different program code from terminal e.g. by use of our tools. This is only possible as long as card is not in RUN state. If the card has an bad ATR this will also not work, since you cannot access the card anymore. In short: If you get swBadATR the card is dead. Nothing you can do to change this. So be carefull when using Declare Binary ATR, since by use of this you may specify invalid ATRs.
