What he said
the connect says it has a gig but apps say it has 806. i think i remember someone saying that a portion is being used of the os or something like that but i don't remember. could that be true because then the spirit might have a gig

Some is used by the OS. Same for the internal memory of this SPIRIT phone, it looks like it will be advertised as having 5GB of internal memory, but only the amount on that picture is what's available, the other MBs of memory is probably used for formatting.

For some devices that may be true, but unfortunately, the LG Motion 4G only has about 710MB available to it for the OS and apps. It is currently unknown what the other ~250MB of the ram is used for in the system (or if it even exists at all).

As far as I know, Windows XP does the same with RAM, reporting only what you can use and not reporting what the OS uses. Windows 7 reports all of it and tells you what you are able to use.

Linux has been my primary desktop operating system since 2002, so I'm not really sure what Windows reports. You'll probably want to read through the thread I linked if you haven't already
I read that already

Hmm, so it looks like system might not be using it. I wonder if LG is falsely advertising.

I don't know, but it'll probably take someone smart with hardware to test the hardware and figure if that missing ~250MB exists, and if so where it's being used.

I wonder if this MS870 is the same as the P870:
LG Escape P870 - Full phone specifications
Just CDMA instead of GSM, or maybe it is GSM because of T-Mobile merge?????

The escape is too small (4.3). It might of been on another forum but the op said it was near the same size as the s3 (4.8) and the ui is the same because it's LG UI 4 I think
