The only way to manage this "smartphone" is to shut down applications. Do this in settings- applications- running and then manually select apps that you don't use and stop them. Long and laborious, but your phone will be useful for a few hours. Also, move as many apps as possible to the sd card.
What an awful smartphone; I tell my computer students all day how bad it is. Shame on you, Verizon and LG!!
