System and method for over-the-air update of wireless communication devices

摘要

A system and method is provided for over-the-air updating of a wireless communication device. The system and method provides the ability to update both direct-addressable and non-direct-addressable portions of the device memory. The system and method uses an agent that is downloaded to the wireless communication device as part of a direct-addressable memory update package. The direct-addressable memory update installs the agent into the direct-addressable memory. After the direct-addressable memory update is performed, the agent is executed and performs an update of the non-direct addressable portions of the device memory.
