Abstract
A mobile telephony device, comprising:
- a storage device (1) (for example a SIM/USIM card) comprising means for storing at least one application (3A, 4A);
- at least one data array manager module (5) for managing data arrays of at least one application stored in the storage device, comprising means for receiving, by means of a remote access (OTA) message, at least one instruction for operating on at least one piece of data contained in an array of a specified application, means for accessing said array according to said instruction, and means for performing at least one operation on said at least one piece of data in said array, according to said instruction.
The invention also refers to a method for managing data in arrays of applications stored in a card of a mobile telephony subscriber equipment.
