Does anyone know how to disable as much of sense as possible without rooting? For example the weather showing on the lockscreen as well as HTC location service. I have already disabled the weather app yet it is still showing on the lockscreen
Disable sense make no sense on a HTC phone
you could just flash a custom rom? Sense is the skin htc run on top of android so you can't really disable it as such.
Widgetlocker, lets you customize the lock screen, but I am pretty sure it is tightly integrated into the stock rom.
I have replaced a lot of things, like the default shell, with google now, and the google keyboard. The dialer is also fixed.

You could disable the lock screen and use a different app for the lockscreen.

Hey guys, im running the viperxl latest 3.2.8 and in the aroma installer i choose to completely remove sense because it saves a lot of RAM. Before without running any apps the ram would be about 850mb/1GB Free. After de-sensing the rom i get 600/1gb free. Im using NOVA Launcher to replace the sense dock.
Everything is perfect except for not having any shortcuts on lockscreen. Is there any fix/workaround? i really like the 4 icons on lockscreen where you can pull the ring to the icon.
If not, is there a way to install ONLY the sense lockscreen without install the whole sense system?
Also, ive tried downloading some music from my dropbox and i move the mp3 files to the "Music" folder on the sdcard. When i open the music app i see the songs but i get an error when i try to play them saying "unable to play this type of audio file"
Thanks for the help!
You can enable the AOSP lockscreen in venom tweaks but I am pretty sure you don't need to in order get the lockscreen shortcuts..
I am almost certain you just need to set the lockscreen shortcuts in venom tweaks. I think they are unset by default.
I don't use venom, otherwise I'd check for you.

Yeah i saw the settings in venom tweaks and i changed the settings also in custom lockscreen shortcuts, however the screen still stays empty without any shortcut icons. I was browsing through xda trying to find a solution and i saw a post saying that NOVA launcher restricts the use of sense lockscreen?
Correct. You need sense to use the sense lockscreen

ah then aosp lockscreen it is.
weird. Lockscreen shortcuts with sense lockscreen work for me and i desensed it in aroma too and chose nova launcher. Try going into personalize and see if lockscreen shortcuts is checked. Maybe you unchecked it by accident or something
GO Locker
Use a third party lockscreen on the play store like go locker. Then you can get up to 6 icons and customize which does what and what the lock screen looks like
Duh!

Its always the simplest things that fix everything THANKS!
Title says it all... Basically, I want to remove/disable lockscreen widgets, (which is an option in many ROMS), however use a custom widget (instead of the standard clock)... get it?
I tried replacing the standard widget, then disable all widgets... however, unfortunately that brings backs the main clock lockscreen widget.
Anyway

Dont disable lockscreen widgets. Just add your custom widget and delete the page with stock widget , thats it

Ah, the reason I asked, is because I HATE to see the white highlight sqaures when I unlock the device.... (Love lockscreen widgets tho)... just wish I could make the white highlighting transparent... ;(
How about something like widget locker?

With cataclysm ROM, you can make it so that there's only 1 widget on the luck screen

I was wondering the same thing
Hey guys I was wondering if anyone knew if it was possible to have the Dashclock widget (or something similar) on the lockscreen with details visible while still having the unlock icon ready to unlock the device. I'll elaborate a little just in case the previous doesn't make much sense...
So I'm currently running CM 11 on my N5 and under Settings>Lock screen there's an option called "Maximize widgets" which expands your lockscreen widgets but minimizes your unlock icon. Since the icon is minimized, you need to tap on it to bring it back up (while simultaneously minimizing Dashclock for example), then tap again and drag to unlock your phone. Is there any ROM, application, or maybe Xposed Installer module that allows lockscreen widgets to remain maximized while keeping the unlock icon from requiring two steps?
note: I'm currently using the quick launch shortcuts with one of them set as my Google Now Launcher but that returns me to my home screen every time I unlock my phone..
Check out lockerpro or sliderlock app... Same Dev... Or a ROM that has built in lock screen notifications (which almost do)... Another alternative would be active display within Roms or maybe acdisplay app

couldnt find exactly what i was looking for but im giving acdisplay a try. thanks! (and thanked)
Im wanting to edit my lockscreen kind of like we already edit our homescreen. In particular im looking to get my agenda and a snapshot of the weather on the lockscreen. Is this possible? If so how, oh and im not looking to use a launcher as i like the layout and feel of touch wiz. Thanks
You can't without root. Some manufacturers (e.g. HTC) will have weather info etc. on their lock screens natively, but Samsung doesn't unfortunately.
Well thats stupid! Okay option two/three. Any good lockscreen apps that replace existing lockscreen that dont lag? Or any launchers that sill allow me to keep my own theme and app style and layout but allow me to customize the lockscreen?

I don't know of any lock screen apps off the top of my head because I never use any, but I know they're on the Play Store, so just do a search and see which one would probably fit your needs. Also, the launcher and lock screen are two different things, so installing a custom launcher just affects the home screen and app drawer.

I tried that, and its giving me loads of issues any other suggestions? Thanks
I always used AcDisplay on my past android phones. I haven't set it up on my S7, so I don't honestly recall all the features, but I always liked it so that's a good place to start.
May just be for notifications but I really can't remember.
Try hi locker it uses the fingerprint scanner has good media and notifications has calendar and weather as well
Hey guys. I want to set a different lockscreen but I don't see any option for doing such. The lockscreen always remains the same as the homescreen. I would like to set adifferent picture as my lockscreen. Can you suggest any ways to this? I have root access on my Moto G3
Are you running a CM based rom? Also in the latest version of Google Now Launcher you can change it

i suppose what you are saying is about..
Keeping Two different wallpapers for LOCKSCREEN and HOMESCREEN ( like lumia, Mi devices) isnt it??
IF yes, do one thing.. install a LOCKSCREEN from playstore.. give it notification access and device permissions so that it can work as your Default Lock screen, and Disable real lockscreen present on your phone..
if the lockscreen allows you to keep wallpaper, then keep it ..
