An APPLICATION configuration service provider that has an APPID of w2 is used to configure browser favorites.
The w2 APPLICATION configuration service provider is managed over OMA Client Provisioning protocol.
Note
Access to this configuration service provider is determined by security roles. Because OEMs and mobile operators can selectively disallow access, ask them about the availability of this configuration service provider. For more information about roles, see Security Roles and Default Roles for Configuration Service Providers.
In the root characteristic, the default security roles are defined. The default security role maps to each subnode unless specific permission is granted to the subnode. The following table shows the default settings.
