Hello all
Its still within a week of me getting the HTC One, but as I wandered further down the rabbit hole, I have already flashed TrickDroid onto it (mainly to keep the option for HTC Sense components I like) and the Nova Launcher.
Now, I do not get the Lock Screen notifications (SMS, Calls, Alarms), even though this is set to "Productivity" under Settings > Personalize > Lock Screen Style. I cant find any other settings relating to lock screens.
Last night, I tried adding the "Nova Launcher Prime", but this didnt offer any additional lock screen settings. I then tried "MagicLocker Main" which did put items back on the lock screen, but I didnt like the functionality.
So, I am forced down the route of *needing* to install an additional lock screen app? If so, is this due to some bug, etc, with TrickDroid or Nova that doesnt allow use of the built-in lock screen functionality on the HTC One? (Not sure if the lock screen is HTC Sense 5 or AOSP...) What are the recommended local screen apps? Next on my list was "WidgetLocker Lockscreen" as its made by the same people as Nova Launcher, but the intro text makes it sound really old... HTC Sense 3.0!?!?!?
Thanks

TrickDroid with the stock Sense lockscreen does not have any such notification problems. Did you select the AOSP lockscreen option during the Aroma installation? If so, that's probably most of your problem. Forcing an AOSP lockscreen on a Sense ROM can cause problems because these 2 were not really made to go together. If you're not sure which screen you have, the stock Sense lockscreen has the 5 icon row at the very bottom. If you don't have the Sense lockscreen, reflash TrickDroid (without wiping) with the AOSP lockscreen option unchecked.
Once you do this, be sure the option for "Notification Preview" is enabled in the Messages app, otherwise you won't see any SMS notifications on the lockscreen.
Thanks henrybravo
Tried your steps to re flash without wiping, and ensuring AOSP Lockscreen isn't installed, can't recall if I did choose this option before, but it is possible. Various messages appear on lock screen again now, like SMS and calendar notifications.
Does this mean staying down the HTC Sense 5 apps, there are some aspects of stock AOSP that just won't work? Or just TrickDroid that I have been using?
Thanks again

I love my newly rooted Aria... I do however miss my lock screen. I loved having the Aria lock, where you pull the whole lock screen down to get to your apps. With CM6 you get the slide bar to unlock. It's not terrible, but I'd really really prefer to use the old Aria lock screen... Anyone know if this is available anywhere or how I go about doing it? Thanks in advance...
Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I BELIEVE that lock screen is sense ui and since sense (that sounds weird) is proprietary it cannot be added to CM6...there are however many lock screen apps that will allow you to choose something remarkably similar to the sense lock screen...widget locker is one of them.
Also, how did you manage to get the slide? When I unlock (bring my phone back from standby) it just shows me my visible dots for unlock pattern and once I enter that brings me to my home screen...

Hm, did you try just disabling your lock pattern? It's either in the CM6 settings or the ADW Launcher settings. By default after I rooted my phone the lock screen was a little slider bar, not like the iphone slider, it was a little tab on the left of the screen and when you hold it you slide it to the right. I ended up just disabling my lock screen completely but would go back to the old sense lock if I figure out how. I do remember reading somewhere that disabling the dot lock pattern will default to the slider lock screen, should work for you.
Hello,
Im currently using my HTC one with nova launcher. After dloading and installing holo locker I noticed two things.
1) When i lock my screen and go back to unlock it, The htc sense home screen will flash for a second before holo locker kicks in
2) I cant seem to find a way to get my security pattern or a password with this lockscreen.
Any help would be appreciated
Thank you

I have similar issues. Rarely, but it does happen, I too have issues with the lockscreen sometimes showing the main page and after a deley it shows the lockscreen (This is after I've pressed the power button, ready to unlock). Not sure about the security pattern as I don't use one, I'm sure there's an option to enable security within the Holo Locker app.
My main issue was with the sim lock. I had this enabled but while using Holo my phone had no service. I rebooted my phone and realised that without my default lockscreen, I never saw the keyboard to enter my pin so my phone remained locked with no service until I disabled it in settings or switched back to my normal lockscreen ... Annoying to say the least ... Don't even get me started on the notificatons problem when using third party launchers and lockers but there are solutions but I'm wondering if it's all worth it, just to have no status bar on the lockscreen and homescreen.

yeah I hear you
I have recently update my HTC one ( non- carrier version) to Android 4.3. However, unlike before, I cannot find the 'Change lock screen' option in settings. Can any one help?
Been removed by HTC

Why do they do this stupid ****? No wonder HTC are losing all their street cred.
Never even noticed. Interesting.
Turning the lockscreen compeletely off was one of the best features for me. And now its gone. Well, its time for a custom rom...

I was in the latest stock rom 2 days ago. I cannot have direct access for the dock like before.
But you can desactivate the lock screen. My version is in french so maybe my translate is bad, but you shouls find it.
Security -> ignore lockscreen on wake up (the second line from the top)
After this, as i don't have any pin after the screen lock i go directly into my home screen.
But maybe europe OTA is late...
I have that option enabled (please see attached screenshot) and no security set and it still goes to lockscreen. It's not that hard to flip it away, just very annoying because the animation lags a bit, there are two things to do and altogether it's a lot slower than just pressing the power button and instantly be on a homescreen.
Will try the new 4.4 kitkat google edition rom.
Get an app to help you with this...
I used a free app "No lock screen" from Google play store, and worked like a charm...
Hope that helps!

The option was removed, you can't have the lockscreen settings, and you can't change the wallpaper or choose will ls apply.
But some of this feature will be in the Final release of the ViperOne.
Like they mentioned, this option is removed but you can go to:
Settings -> Security -> Notification Settings (4th option from top to bottom)
And in here you can choose what you want to be displayed in your lockscreen, the options are Phone (missed calls), Voice Mail, Text messages, Emails and calendar events.
apart from this, I believe the lockscreen widgets are always accessible if you swipe from the right corner and cannot be disabled... I think, so in a way you have almost all the functionality and "options" of the lockscreen choice you had in past sense versions.
Hope this helps!
In HTC Sense, whenever I activate the display, I get the normal unlock screen which allows direct access to different apps by swiping the corresponding dock icons...
This normal lockscreen is ALWAYS shown, and if I have enabled a secure lockscreen (like pattern unlock or face unlock), this secure lockscreen is shown AFTER the first "normal" lockscreen.
Is there an AOSP/AOKP/CM based mod that can do the same thing?
edit for clarification:
Use case is the following: I use face unlock, but sometimes I just want to have a quick look at the lockscreen (widgets). But with cyanogenmod, as soon as I press the power button, my face gets recognized and the phone is unlocked. It's so quick that I can't even see the dashclock widget.
So it would be perfect to have a normal "slide to unlock" lockscreen (with different slide targets for different apps), and THEN the face unlock.
I don't get it why HTC Sense seems to be the only system that has this kind of behavior properly implemented
Follow-up: Now I use Widget Locker, it does exactly what I want.
another follow-up:
Unfortunately, Widget Locker has its own problems...
I have different apps that show music or other playback controls on the lockscreen (Play Music, TuneIn Radio, Yatse), and those don't work with Widget Locker.
So this brings me back to my original question... is there really no "not-Sense-based" rom that can display the normal "slide to unlock" screen before the secure lockscreen?
