Dual Channel Delivery

A user equipment device (UE), comprising:

• at least one antenna;
• at least one radio, wherein the at least one radio is configured to perform cellular communication using at least one radio access technology (RAT);
• one or more processors communicatively coupled to the at least one radio, wherein the one or more processors and the at least one radio are configured to perform voice and/or data communications;
• wherein the one or more processors are configured to:
• transmit, via the at least one radio, a service related message to a server over a reverse push connection rather than via a hypertext transport protocol (HTTP) request;
• receive an indication of an error from the server via the at least one radio;
• and
• retransmit, responsive to receiving the indication of the error and via the at least one radio, the service related message via the HTTP request.

A server, comprising:

• a network interface;
• and
• a processing element operatively coupled to the network interface;
• wherein the processing element is configured to:
• determine a capacity for service related messages from one or more user equipment devices (UEs) over one or more respective push notification connections;
• generate a random value and a percent range associated with the random value, wherein the percent range is based at least in part on the capacity;
• transmit the random value and the percent range to the one or more UEs;
• receive, from a first subset of the one or more UEs, service related messages via hypertext protocol (HTTP) requests;
• and
• receive, from a second subset of the one or more UEs, service related messages via the push notification connection.
