I just got a text from sprint, but I don't know if it is from sprint about a web browser update. It says the following: Please tap the link below and then tap brose once complete a white brower screen will appear. Tap home. http://pxme.us/in2// Is this from sprint or is this something else?

If this is legit why in the world would Sprint send it out like this?

http://pxme.us/in2// is Pocket Express. The download is Version 1.1.5, which is what I believe we've been manually downloading the last couple of days. So if that's what the link they sent you is, you might already have it.

I got it as well about 30 minutes ago. I already downloaded the latest version manually yesterday and installed it. I would have expected it to say "overwrite" or something to that extent when I downloaded it, but it didn't even though the versions were the same?

I just got the same "Sprint Web Update REQUIRED" txt telling me to tap the link below and install some s***. What is Sprint thinking tryign to push an update this way?

I already have Pocket Express 1.1.5 if thats what it is. And I'm not installing anything sent to me from some random number without a way to verify it's origins.

Why don't they notify us about updates and what the updates fix? I get all my info from this site, not Sprint. That's real bad service from Sprint.

I got the same text and I agree that SPRINT should not send a text out that WE do not know if its spam, a virus, or etc.  Thats just bad service!!!

it hung up on a white browser, but then you hit "home" and over on the right is "instinct software updates," which installed it for me.  kindof an odd procedure.
