Hi guys!
I have a problem with my L920, its not only on my phone. I saw the issue on other devices too.
Basically i cant install any app that requires 1gb ram. it doesn`t show up on store.
Is there something i can do? i`ve searched this problem online but the only answer i found was to restart the phone, or factory reset. Which doesn`t help me

Even though the 920 has 1gb of physical ram, the available ram is affected by what you have running in the background. On your phone info if will show 1gb of ram. But on my 920 the Windows Phone|INSIDER app shows only 898mb due to system usage in background and I have only 2 weather apps running in background plus whatever WP8.1 is using.

I don't know if you can disable enough of the background stuff running so you could actually have 1gb ram available.
