Sense 6 lockscreen is terrible.
All notification is collapsed in one item and need to pull down it every time to see all items (sms, agenda, mail...)
Is there any chance to get 5.5 lockscreen back?

Anyone interested in adding even more functionality to the Sense 3 Lockscreen?
Say maybe another row of icons or possibly widget functionality (like Doggcatcher control widget, Pandora Widget, Even Music Control Widgets).
Would get me that much closer to matching the functionality of Widgetlocker.
So far the Sense 3 theme on WidgetLocker isn't matching the same functions for me. Maybe I'm not doing it right but still, I'd go with the standard layout but give me that extra row for controlling Doggcatcher or PowerAmp.
Havent been able to yet either. Cant change much on sense 3.0 either. the carousel is making me mad too. I want to eedit the lock screen but we may nee to wait for roms
Okay from playing around with ROMs on my 4g (I haven't rooted my 3D yet), I have learned that I prefer AOSP rather than Sence. For now I just loaded ADW because I like the 5 icon dock. However there is one widget I REALLY like, the clock. I know there are a couple on the market that have the time and weather, but the thing I really liked about the HTC clock is that in addition to time and weather, it had alarms, timers and countdown timers. I know I can get an app for the alarms, timers and countdown, but I like the HTC and I like it being all in the one widget.
I guess what I am asking is, is there a way to get (through a similar app/widget or custom ROM) HTC clock working with a 5 icon dock bar?

No need to switch ROM's.
Sure download "fancy widgets" it has a clock widget just like the stock one then download "alarm clock extreme" and you will have all your features back. Although I think you can still use the htc clock app without the widget. I currently use no sense and ADW with fancy widgets and the stock clock.apk that came with the phone. Fancy widgets even let you assign an app to open when clicking on any of the sections of the widget. You can customize all kinds of visual stuff on it also. Hope this helps.
Is it possible to have upcoming events from the calendar on the lockscreen?
I'd like to keep teh TW lockscreen.
Maybe via modding? eg replacing the stocks ticker or the news ticker?
Does anyone know if this would be possible?

I know you want to keep the TW lockscreen...but alternatively, I use Widget Locker lockscreen with Android Agenda Widget. (back since my HD2 days)
TRUST ME...I have owned widget locker for several years and watched it progress. It runs absolutely FLAWLESS on my S3. It has TONS of options/switches to make your every scenario happen without glitches. And there are so many choices for sliders etc.
Anyway, Agenda Widget has many options as well....actually so many it can be quite confusing. I have it listing my next 6 calendar events with TODAYS current events bold and brighter. So when I turn my screen on....that's 1 single button push....I can see my days events...if I have them. To me, this si fast and efficient.
I keep a Handcent widget on it for reading my recent text message...again...1 click....and several sliders including one that opens my camera for quick scenario photo taking. Widgets are overlap-able and resizable etc. (I am not affiliated...just proud)
Widget locker has only one bug which is very annoying.
If you get a Msg, and you've set the Pop Up to come, try unlocking the screen.
The pop up would display for a very short time before WL.
This doesn't happen with TW lockscreen.

Is there a way to have notifications in the lockscreen as in sense 4.1? I find it really useful
Is it an easy task to remove the Sense lockscreen (the arc thingy) and switch to the AOSP JB lockscreen which I find much more visually pleasing?
I just find the HTC Sense lockscreen very ugly compared to the AOSP lockscreen and clock.
Failing that, has anyone developed a mod that can do this task?
I appreciate there are apps on the market, but these really just sit over the top of the Sense lockscreen, it's always there in the background, a phone reboot usually reveals the Sense lockscreen first.
I seem to recall on my old Desire HD it was easy to remove the htclockscreen apk and it would default to an AOSP style, but I am unsure if this works on Sense 4. It might be more integrated now.
Thank you.
You can do exactly what you did on the Desire HD. The only annoyance I've had is that you have to unlock the screen to answer phone calls.
What NasaGeek said is true. In addition, if you use the HTC Clock app for your alarms, a similar problem arises. It seems that the HTC lock screen is bypassed by the HTC phone and clock apps so that you can interact with them immediately when your screen turns on, but without the HTC lock screen, you do have to swipe to unlock the screen before you can take a call or snooze an alarm.
I have noticed that when I used the Android 4.2 stock clock instead of the HTC one that the alarm is no longer an issue.
Well, I tried removing the htclockscreen apk however the Sense lockscreen remains.
There is another apk called fusion, seems to relate to the lockscreen. I tried removing this and then my phone failed to boot. Had to return to a backup. This is running the Elegancia Int rom.
Thanks
