Just because it can read that certain standard doesn't mean it will read HID iClass cards. iClass cards hold encrypted data on them, but a simple google search told me that even the encryption can be cracked ( http://www.openpcd.org/HID_iClass_demystified, http://static.usenix.org/events/woot11/tech/final_files/Garcia.pdf). From only reading the abstract and glancing over the paper they do say "Finally, we show that recovering an iClass master key is not harder than a chosen plaintext attack on single DES". Im assuming since the hardware used in android phones that can access that ISO standard would in theory be able to read an iClass card if you can program one to do so.
