Its common and no worries , PRL stands for Perferred Roming List

here is an explaination from Sprint on how to manually update yours

What is the Preferred Roaming List (PRL)?
div#shArticleTitle{ display: none; margin: 0; } What is the Preferred Roaming List (PRL)?

The Preferred Roaming List (PRL) is a file located inside your handset used to acquire both the Sprint network and Sprint roaming partner's network for you while you are roaming off the Nationwide Sprint Network or Sprint Mobile Broadband Network. Sprint updates the PRL a few times a year to provide you with new domestic digital roaming coverage or with international roaming coverage, or to make other necessary adjustments.
You should seek a PRL update if you receive a text message on your phone telling you to call *2 for an update or receive a letter from Sprint to update.
A PRL update will not:
  • Improve signal strength on Sprint Network or off network roaming areas
  • Help with dropped or blocked calls, or coverage holes
  • Help with wireless Web issues
  • Correcting misrouted calls when roaming
To update your PRL, perform the following steps:
NOTE:
You can only update your PRL while you are on the Nationwide Sprint Network or Sprint Mobile Broadband Network.
1. Dial *2, and then press Talk. 2. Tell the Customer Care agent that you need a PRL update. 3. Dial *2 again to receive the update by listening to a brief message. 4. Once the message is complete, hang up. Your PRL is updated.

Hope that helps
