List here what you DO NOT like on 8.1.

Anybody else or it's only me? Glance screen no more working. Only clock but no notifications

I missed the way which I could easily switch between silent and ring mode in the volume menu.

Can you just hold volume down and then hit the drop down arrow and turn vibrate off? That enables silent for me without having to go to the settings.
 
1. i don't like that the WIFI toggle still leads you to the wifi control and not set it for on/off
2. i don't like that the action center does allow only 4 toggles
3. i don't like that there is no flashlight toggle
4. i don't like the fact the the amazing keyboard is only in english ( no hebrew )
5. and the most weird thing is that after clicking one notification on the notification center (let's say WhatsApp) and i still have mail notifications, the icon on the notification bar disappear...
 
Exactly! I have like over 100+games and for them to be on my already long app list is absolutely ridiculous! I really hope they change that in an update!
 
Xbox Music just crashed as it was coming to the end of the song list... and now it wants to look for all the music again...

I'm done.
 
Some of these changes are so blatantly ignorant that it's hard to believe there already isn't an update for these issues in the mix. The ENTIRE OS was sold as "get in, get out" and they've literally taken that completely away. It's now quite possible the least "connected" OS out there.

Saying that, I still think the update was huge and great.
 
You sure about that ? I still have the option under settings - touch, to disable the vibration for wp keys. (Lumia 820 black updated to 8.1) Check it once more.

Yep...just looked in Settings > Touch. I get Touch sensitivity and Double tap to wake...Nothing about the vibration anymore. Oh well...so far, that's my only complaint, and it's a tiny one :)
 
Holy crap, thankfully I waited before moving to Windows phone all sounds such a mess, don't think ill bother now


you do realize this is a PREVIEW meaning it is sort of like Beta. By the time the official version comes out, I expect bug fixes.

People should realize that some of the bugs/issues you have should be expected since you did install a PREVIEW of an official update.
 
The lack of a data connection icon in the notification center is also the first bad thing I noticed. I hope they will include it soon with some update
this is the first thing I noticed and disliked in WP.1 it's very simple and stupid thing not to add to the quick action icons
mm

the sad thing is they have listened to TOO MANY Android users who don't know JACK SQUAT about workflow and design concepts. And it shows. Almost ALL the customization crap now is based on android crap.

Busting up hubs is absolutely the worst move EVAR.
 
OH MY GOD!! WTF? I can not post a status update through the me tile to FB, Twitter and Linked in AT THE SAME time anymore!??????? You have to use the damn app!?????
Oh hell NO you didn't!!!!!

Me thinks I may be done with WP.
