1. A device comprising:

  • a first processor; and

    a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the first processor, facilitate performance of operations comprising;

    receiving, from a network interworking function operating in a server, an over-the-air programming message utilizing a hypertext transfer protocol, the over-the-air programming message including programming data for use by the device;

    converting the over-the-air programming message to a short message service transport protocol to generate an adjusted message that includes the programming data; and

    providing the adjusted message to a universal integrated circuit card of the device via a second processor of the device, wherein the first processor, the universal integrated circuit card and the second processor are separate from each other and are in communication with each other,wherein the over-the-air programming message is one of a group of over-the-air programming messages from a group of over-the-air programming servers, andwherein the network interworking function determines a priority among the group of over-the-air programming messages, wherein the priority is utilized for determining a transmission schedule for the group of over-the-air programming messages.
