Seeing how the M8 is so good, I don't feel they need to change a lot. Sense is awesome the way it is, though I'm sure they'll tweak it some. Still it's not perfect so here's what I'd like to see with the M9. Shorten it some for starters. The black bar is a bit much. Boomsound rules, so keep it. Maybe upgrade it a tad for clarity. Keep the 32 gigs internal with the SD storage. Screen bump slightly to 5.2 perhaps, MAYBE 5.5, if they can keep the bezels reasonable. Keep the ultra pixels. Yes, keep it. The duo camera too. It helps set it apart from the pack. However, it needs a bump to 8 mp, so you can actually zoom. And OIS has to be in there too. Snapdragon 805 clocked at say 2.8 would make it fly even better than the M8 with the 801. Let's go 3 gigs of RAM. Bigger battery to outdo Samsung and keep pace with LG would be smart. Say, 3000 mAh, maybe 3200 if possible, to give it killer battery life. And we can probably do without QHD, and stick with 1080p, and just bump the pixels, and refine color representation. But, I bet they go 1440 anyway, to keep pace with the market. And keep it light on bloat and only put features in there people will use. That's part of what makes Sense so great already. Outside of that, I can't think of much else. The series doesn't need an overhaul, just more of an evolution than the S5 was from the S4.
