I spent some time digging through the OMA specs for the answer to this , but finally decided to consult the experts. With NOWSMS you can send OMA CP settings without applying the User PIN or Network PIN. Is the authentication process voluntary? Is it in line with the OMA requirements to be able to send these messages in the clear? Should the device accept OMA CP messages for all application settings that lack an authentication parameter? | |||

Hi, Sending the settings without a PIN is within spec ... but the device doesn't have to accept it. It depends on whatever security policies are imposed by the software on the device. The concern is that they don't want to make it too easy for a rogue application to reconfigure user devices. -- Des NowSMS Support |
