NexusPhone
NexusPhone, a NeoForge mod for 1.21.1, adds a smartphone item that holds contacts, messages, photos and bank data for the player who carries it.
What it does
Each phone is a modern iOS-style device with a lock screen, a messenger that shows photo thumbnails in chat bubbles, and a camera app. Create: Numismatics handles the bank side of the phone, and Simple Voice Chat carries calls between players. Phones bind their data to the item's NBT, so the contents stay with the device.
The phone is built for survival and roleplay worlds. It protects itself with a 4 to 6 digit PIN, a Face ID style scan, and an exponential cooldown after three failed attempts. Dropping it needs a deliberate double-tap confirmation, and a spam block list can silently refuse calls and texts.
NexusPhone runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for NeoForge only, for Minecraft 1.21.1, and the license is All rights reserved, so the mod is not open source.
Key features
Passcode and Face ID scan
A 4 to 6 digit PIN secures the phone, and the owner's device plays an automatic Face ID scan before the screen opens.
Lockout with cooldown
Three failed login attempts lock the screen behind a timer that grows with each further failure.
Spam block list
A toggle keeps a block list of contacts whose calls and texts are refused at once.
Messenger with photo previews
Chats show quick-select contacts, and sent photos appear as scaled thumbnails inside the bubbles.
Cinematic camera view
Opening the camera hides the HUD, hotbar, chat and scoreboard while the character keeps moving, and the shutter saves clean photos to disk.
Random Austrian-style numbers
Each phone is assigned a clean number in the Austrian format, starting with +43 664.

What the author says
Every single byte of data—from contacts, dynamic gallery photos, messages, to bank accounts—is bound directly to the item's NBT data. If you lose your physical phone or pass it to another player, they get your phone data, making it the perfect asset for immersive Economy and Hardcore Roleplay servers! Ringtones can…
