Something that I just saw this morning...the ability to disable the shortcut or jump letters in the app list...not everyone wants this! Especially if you don't have a lot of apps.
When swiping in from the top you get the bt,wifi,signal,time etc.
pressing these icons should bring a corresponding setting/app screen (wifi selection clock (alarms) bt menu, etc)
Just thought about this... The ability to have bookmark folders in IE and to be able to add those folders to your start screen.
Out of all the things in this thread, this is the most definitive no. Adobe completely pulled out of Flash on mobile... I don't remember why (performance issues... security... updating... etc). But if it was pulled from Android, never to be supported or offered again, then you just know it won't ever be coming to anything else either.Also Flash support. I know alot of ppl say that flash is becoming obsolete, but I just visited 2 websites that needed flash support and couldn't view them because of no flash. There are still alot of sites that use it.
Yes phones fly even today but only thing is they get cracked on landingI want my phone to be able to fly.

It's going to take a long time for flash to disappear off of websites though, it really is.
The ability to stop music, videos, and podcasts without using an app....ridiculous! I don't want it paused I just want a simple stop button. Simple. Just seems like sooo many simple things are missing...i still love my first Windows Phone, but these oddities can be very cumbersome.
^ agree! What is the difference between stopping and pausing anyway? Answer: nothing. Audio stops either way. Pausing has the benefit of being able to resume.
Why not offer both options...the ability to come right back where you left off and also the ability to completely stop the music. Some ppl (including myself) have noticed faster battery drains while the music is paused instead of completely closed. Also, when streaming on limited data, one needs to be certain that certain music apps are closed, not paused. Pls see my post above comparing this "feature" to sleep mode on laptops, its the same concept.I personally love the feature (yes, I consider that a feature) that WP saves the song I was last listening in the volume control bar. It's great if you listen to a lot of music but have to stop listening it intermittently. When you're ready to listen some tunes again, no need to go back to the app.
The problem is that when you are streaming music on data, ppl have been reported data still being used ( even if it's a reduced amount) when the music is paused instead if completely stopped. I am almost certain that the battery is affected when music is paused instead of closed as well. Its like when your computer sleeps instead of powering down, just because the lid is temporarily closed, doesn't mean that all processes are stopped during sleep mode versus actually turning it off. When an app sleeps it may still use processes or data until the app is completely closed. This is very simple, and none of my older phones had this issue. Its very confusing for a new WP user to understand why you can't simply close an app or stop a music/ video. A lot of users would prefer a simple closure of apps and music to ensure no data usage and to prolong battery life.
