Compared to the N9, this is what the next Update should provide for daily professional use:

  1. display the number of the called contact (home, mobile, office ...)
  2. display the number and name of conatct called: home, office, mobile sets, etc. ..
  3. Historical display with hours of calls on previous days
  4. involuntary call a contact by mistake touching the dialed calls list screen
  5. also view the call history by contact, call duration (call management gives N9)
  6. have the ability to adjust the size and color of characters in sms
  7. History of SMS
  8. attach a file (image, text, audio, video) with SMS
  9. Managing a conference call with several people.
  10. blacklist phone numbers (calls & sms)
  11. Contact Address: Office, home
  12. email: private, office
  13. Contact function
  14. contact profession
  15. refuse possibility masked number

  1. and 14. is there, look into "Details". I'd rather prefer a free-form "Notes" textbox for miscellaneous notes instead of further cluttering the interface with some rather narrowly defined fields.

11 and 12 already exist. Go into edit mode, long press on the field and select "Change Label" from the context menu. You can choose personal / work / other contexts for those details.

You are making multiple points in a single question. This makes it difficult to vote for it as a whole. for example, point 8 makes no sense, SMS are text only, there is nothing to do about that. Please, split your list into single questions, or better yet, look for similar questions on the site --I am pretty sure most are already there-- and vote for them.

I'd like to have a better keyboard with more options, push emails, better maps turn by turn, more options to share files (dropbox, other apps, Android apps when installed) a built-in app to make ambiences with right resolution, more personalization, icons and any other kind of stuff.

16 - an option to have "condensed" (like now) and "expanded" version of contact details

17- option to set default phone number. If I understand correctly ATM topmost number is default; Have 500+ imported contacts and numbers are not "in order", so editing each one is quite time consuming :/

18 - an option to add attacment to SMS message and convert it to MMS inside Messages app. There is article about that from April, but still -- a reminder :) Source: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/201849396-How-do-I-send-and-receive-MMS-

19 - if phone number is not "mobile" do not show option for SMS. I belive N900 has this option.

@19: why? SMS is not limited to mobile phones. There are normal phones with SMS capability, too. Some providers even read out SMS to you if your phone does not support the feature.

As I wrote -- an option that can be set on/off.

To answer -- lots of my contacts have multiple numbers, myself for ie. have 2 home numbers, 2 work numbers (central and direct), fax and 3 mobile numbers (work and 2 private), that's total 8 numbers that are shown now. An option would reduce to "only" 3 numbers.

Also, one can define "normal phone with SMS functionality" as mobile and can send SMS :)

Referring to: 8 Adding a file + (8.2 - Showing received file instead of links)

These should also work with integrated Facebook messaging.

To be honest, I would even put it with higher priority than SMS, as maybe 90 % of the messages I send are via Facebook. But yes yes, main functionality first.
