Mute incoming calls by flipping the phone or by placing your hand on the front of te device.

I get notification sounds from messaging app while I am in a call. Needs a option to stop them while in a call.

Repeating chime/alert that notifies you of a missed call if you were away from your phone.

Have the caller ID show/identify the city/state of the phone number in the call history.

I really don't understand why WP7 doesn't have "profiles" such as WM6.5
I.E. when I go to a meeting I would like to quickly change to meeting profile, or if I'm outdoor I would like to have a profile for that matter.
Is at least any software like Handy Assistant for WP7? I had the chance to use it in WM 6.5 and configure profile behavior autoselected according to my schedule. Can I do something like that in WP7?

At the moment highest volume set to 10 (media volume is 30),but when calling international numbers or SkypeToGo it's almost not possible to hear ppl

We need to go in the parameters to switch between sound+vibration or vibration only to silent mode. It's not userfriendly

Lots of cheap phones have them

This is a phone which is job #1. Accessing the dial pad should be a one-step action.

More options in the call forwarding menue like forward call after 10 seconds.

The ability to use wireless internet to place calls when cellular signal is weak would be a game changer. Work with carriers and do this.

Prevent some numbers from calling you

it would be very helpfull not only for businesses to be able to transfer calls to someone else (after accepting the call, not forwarding). Something like "Add call" and a transfer button maybe with a configurable sequence (##3#) ajustable to your providers need.

A string of numbers on a web page, sms, text document etc. should be recognized as phone number and an option to call to that should be offered. Additionally there should be a dialling pane to which one could paste numbers, edit them and make a call and/or save to contacts.

There should be an option under phone settings to block calls that show no number (private or anonymous). The caller would either be sent straight to voicemail or receive a message advising them that they need to unblock their number before calling. Another setting would give users the ability to only receive calls from people in their contact list. Everyone else would be transferred straight to voicemail.

Windows Phone 8 is marketed as having "Video Calling".It doesn't (At least my Nokia Lumia 920 doesn't). My old HTC TouchPro 2 did. Why has this gone, and how can it be marketed as having "Video Calling" as a feature when it doesn't. Skype (and other applications) don't count: The networks can do this without other applications. Please put this back in.

Letters on a dial pad could be used to search users phonebook using T9.
Andoid has this, makes finding a contact a lot easier.
