    let's talk about how intergration sucks in Windows Phone 8

    OP is right. Integration in WP sucks badly and I shouldn't even exist w/o an API that allows developers to integrate their apps. Even MSFT doesn't have those APIs apparently. Social apps upgrade really fast and relaying in a integrated solution will only slow them. Think about it, Facebook...

    Which search engine do you use on your Windows Phone? Bing or Google?

    The pizza restaurant 4 roads above my house. Google's gives me the phone number. Bing shows results from other cities.

    Which search engine do you use on your Windows Phone? Bing or Google?

    Google. Offers better results for my region specifically when searching for local places. I don't live in the USA. You got it MSFT?

    Bing Apps - Change app language and content

    Just one. But having the option to change it when it suits me would be better.

    Bing Apps - Change app language and content

    That's not the case since it's available in Windows 8. I'm Brazilian but live in Ireland and use the apps in Windows 8 to read news about my homeland, bypass restrictions isn't the reason why this function was implemented. Believe or not some people live and travel to many countries so it's good...

    Bing Apps - Change app language and content

    Hi WP Central, Microsoft finally released Bing Apps to Windows Phone 8 a few weeks ago however, against the expected, the apps lack functions compared to their Windows 8 version. The function I'm looking for is the one that allows to change the app language and content to match the country you...

    If you could add one feature to WP8, what would it be?

    Default Apps. Windows RT already has it. Just port this thing, God damn it.

    Windows Phone 7.8 performance changes

    Windows Phone 7.8 brings only aesthetics changes but also affect badly the responsiveness of the phone. I was able to hit Mail live tile then Messages and have both apps load showing how slow this update makes your phone. I hope Microsoft address this problem since WPC reported that there are...

    Critical Music Feature Lost with WP8

    Xbox Music is a back step. Zune was so much better.I still can't understand how Microsoft as a company decided to totally drop a perfect working software for a beta one. What happened to Zune developers, who's making Xbox Music software? They can't be the same person.

    Third-party Apps As Default

    Windows Phone native apps are great and work very well for me but we need the ability to make third-party apps default. Microsoft won't be able to keep native apps innovative and fresh once the marketplace develops, in other hand, devs need those better APIs to develop better apps. I would love...

    How come the OS doesn't support group FB chats?

    No, there isn't FB Group Chat. Even messages sync is missing. Facebook integration is far from complete or ideal.

    Text Messages Discretion is awful!

    Windows Phone doesn't have enough users to voice many things, if it was in Android, the verge, engadget and a bunch of others sites would make Google's life so miserable that they couldn't skip it. That's what I don't get about WPC, they don't make complains about the OS, I don't see then...

    Can you silence notifications?

    I don't know if Windows Phone gives access to settings via NFC, for now I think it's a NO.

    Sad, but Ryude might be totally right.

    Petition to allow DataSense for unlocked phones

    I thought it was loaded in unlocked phones. This makes no sense. In Brazil nobody buys carrier branded phones, you get no subsidy, so we are left out of the most important feature implemented (data compression) in WP8 (there aren't many) for me at least because cellular data is expensive and...

    Kids corner: design flaws?

    WP8 is in Beta. I'm sorry to say that but it's the truth. Syncing music/podcast doesn't work really well, people related needing use WMP (WHAT?!). Desktop sync app for Windows is in Beta. Skype isn't released. Kid's Corner looks broken to me (PW/IE). They didn't fix many flaws in WP7. I love WP...

    Sharing Marketplace, app, Xbox music in Windows Phone 8

    Why doesn't Daniel creates an account and shares all the apps and musics he bought with the whole WPC community. This is an extreme example but I think you got the point.
