I would like to know why i keep getting pop up browser pages on my phone telling me to update my keyboard through the playstore . I also got one today that opened up an iTunes web page to download a game. How do i fix this?  I thought i could add a screen shot but i guess not. Tia

Reset Chrome to default within Chrome settings.  Clear Chrome cache as well.

After resetting Chrome to defaults, download Lookout Mobile Security, scan your phone with it and leave it on your phone to catch possible virus's.  You can also use AVG or Avast or one of the other reputable ones but so far I have had the best luck with Lookout.

Seems like they're trying to get you to install a keyboard, probably to be able to log your keystrokes if you set is as your input method.

Android malware is very limited in what it's capable of.
