Edit video
The fact that you can not edit video on the phone is ridiculous.
That would be the minimum to the OS to be able to basic editing, as well as the material can be uploaded to popular video-sharing sites.Please, make an app like iMovie for iOS!

Windows Phone 8.1 Features
The next version of Windows is already on his way. Windows 8.1 builds recently leaked onto the web, and includes a lot of new things. The border between desktop, tablet and phone is increasingly shrinking.
This concept improve the idea of cloud-syncing – all settings you care about, files, preferences and browser favorites are always sync between all kind of Windows 8 devices. It also focus on the system introduction during the first loading – short presentation of most important Windows Phone features. This is a good way for people who try Windows Phone for the first time to get…69 votes -

Wrong capitalisation of 2 letter words by the autocorrection in Dutch
The Dutch auto-correct capitalizes some 2-letter words wrongfully in mid-sentence.
e.g.: 'ze' -> 'ZE', 'me' -> 'Me', ..these are normal dutch words, no abbreviations or anything. Please fix the dutch dictionary, for this is very annoying.

N’ko on Windows phone
We suggest that N’Ko be added to the window phone repertoire of languages. N’ko is a West African language that is used by more than 40 million people. We need to see such a language added to a platform that is meant for the entire international community.

Windows Phone 8 static IP configuration and VPN support
My new Windows Phone 8 equipped Nokia device doesn't support corporate static IP configuration and assignment or VPN. Incredible! It simply isn't a professional mobile OS, but only a toy.
I spent a lot of time in waiting for this device, but I'm going to let this device to my nephew.
I'm going to buy an Android or an Apple one. I'm sorry for Nokia, a great company.
I hope Microsoft may change its CEO as soon ad possible and may come back to real world...

Tumblr for Windows phone 7.8
I was so happy when I saw Windows Phone's post on Facebook announcing that tumblr is now available on windows phone. Then I clicked on the link and it said it is only compatible with Windows Phone 8! You need to sort this Microsoft! You are going to lose a lot of customers if you keep on leaving out the WP7 users! I'm already considering moving to Android!

Changing the app list into a hub, which creates a perfect Notification Center too
The app list is the only place in the whole Windows Phone UI that looks unfinished. Pictures, music, video and people are all hubs; I wonder why the app list isn't a hub while it is a perfect candidate as apps could be categorized into "All", "Popular" (i.e. "Most used" by the user), "Categories" (as in "photo, music, social networking" apps).
Notice the lonely Search button up there in the apps list? Why not bring that down into a toolbar at the bottom of the screen like everywhere else in WP?Also, you could solve the Notification Center problem because…

Sirius XM Satellite radio App
Sirius XM Satellite Radio needs an official App for Windows Phone! The "unofficial" SiriusXM Buddy App stopped working in Sept 2012, and who knows if it will ever work again (Sirius changed their API).
Now I switch SIM cards back into my old iPhone constantly just so I can listen to Sirius/XM on my phone.
They have an app for iOS, android and even BlackBerry. I've reached out to them to ask; I'm not sure they are listening. Maybe you guys can help make it happen.

Proper Bluetooth SPP support for Pebble Smartwatch and other accessories.
Please allow SPP support so that WP users can use many different types of bluetooth accessories. iOS and Android both allow this, and there is no reason (I know of) why Windows Phone 8 shouldn't have it either.

internet connection stability sensitivity
i live in Persia.i am using adsl 2+ that as you know is not stable--connects disconnects for very short time intervals-- when i download from my win phone device, several times it pauses downloading and needs to resume manually--by taping it--while whenever i download via my android or ios device this problem is not seen......
i think if there is a feature that resumes download automatically after any short pauses it would be great indeed.....
