I just got the same message. That is why I came to the board to see if anyone got the message. Is this a good sign?

Free Verizon Message: Your phone will soon be upgraded to Android 4.0. At that time we will remove your Verizon Wireless Mobile IM app because it is not supported on Android 4.0. Please download a new instant messaging app to use IM on your phone. Thank you for using Mobile IM!

I REALLY wish VZN would include some base FREE Text Messaging as part of all these changes coming up to their plans and ICS .. Something like 25 Free Text Msgs per month ... Reason being is that I have Unlimited Data right now (not using more than 1GB per month) and no Texting Plan ... so I get nickled & dimed by SPAM Texts that I get every month. (I don't want to turn OFF SMS because I get/send valid MSGS from time to time, just not many.)

Correct (if you're referring to my statement) ... What I was referring to is the SPAM messages I get from time to time from people or businesses I don't know.

It sounds like you got this text because you have the Verizon Wireless Mobile IM and it is being deleted. I do not use this app and have not received any texts so far. It appears that we are getting closer to ICS being a reality. Hooray!

A co-worker of mine claims to have gotten a message about a system upgrade coming soon. I haven't personally seen the message myself to know if it is the same message that you are talking about. I think he got the got message a few days to a week ago.
I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.
