Hey,
i have a evo 3d and even before i rooted it and put a custom rom on it, i wanted to remove that weather lock screen that always comes up when you power your phone on. The one that has phone mail camera messages icons and the Current weather, and you then have to drag a circle to the middle. That is the screen i want to remove or disable.
How can i do this with a rooted or stock phone?
I have seen the no lock app and the ScreenMode App which DO remove the Lock screen im talking about, but they ALSO REMOVE the security Pin / Pattern Lock screen also (which i want to retain.)
As it is now, i have to go through 2 lock screen when i power up my phone- The Weather Lock screen i speak of above and want to remove/disable - and the 2nd lock screen is my Pin/Pattern Lock screen which i can enable or disable via Settings->Security->Device Lock.
Please help me remove the weather lock screen,
tks
Widgetlocker is your answer
there's a couple ROMs in the dev section that have removed it, and are using the aosp lockscreen, go check them out.
Just go to setting personalize lock screen and change it to whatever you want no root needed

You have 2 options. You can go into system/data and rename HTCLockscreen.apk to HTCLocksreen.bak (rather than deleting it, in case you ever want it back). Or you could use Titanium Backup to uninstall HTCLockscreen
Widget Locker now gives me its locker screen, which is then followed by my Pattern lock screen (which i need, i only want the pattern lock screen).
If i go to Settings->Personalize (nothing happens, as in i get no options to choose), it just brings me back to the home screen.
I have Titanium Backup Pro and removed HtcLockScreen.apk and it removed it sucesfuly, but now the default Google Lock screen (with the lock on one side, speaker on the other) and you slide the lock to the right to unlock it.
Is there a way to keep WidgetLocker running, but set it to NO lock screen. Normally you would just un-check "Enable Widget Locker" in WidgetLocker's settings but doing this makes the home weather lock screen reappear.
or is there a way to disable the Google lock screen and keep the Pattern Security lock screen (this is how i had it on my EVO 4g)
Thanks for the help guys!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Hold your finger on the weather widget for about 10 seconds (untill the *trash* pops up at the bottom) and drag the sucker into the trash.
Took me all of the first day I owned this phone to kill that POS.
To remove the default HTC Lock screen?

tks for the reply
Recently i have bought alcatel 997 with android ice cream sandwich on it. When i lock the phone and i want to unlock it, lockscreen was full screen with tip (battery, clock) bar at the top of the screen.
but recently, bottom bar (home, back button) appeared on the lock screen, cutting part of the screen. bottom bur does not have any buttons on it (its just black bar) untill i unlock the phone, when phone us unlocked normaly and icons appear on the bottom bar.
why the bar appeared on the bottom of the lock screen and how i can remove it. i googled this etc etc but i wasnt able to find the solution. its realy annoying.
thanks in advance
thanks~~~~~~
I just recently updated to 5.0.1 through a forced OTA which I'm still not happy about. With the recent changes to the lock screen notifications I'm not encountering a irritating problem. Before when I got an SMS and would normally select it from the lock screen and it would bring me to the SMS app and display the message. Now when I select the same notification I get an extra 'swipe to unlock' with an empty box. I prefer to have a swipe lock screen so that I don't pocket dial, no security concerns. Is there a way to remove this extra step without permanently disabling the lock screen as a whole? Thank you in advance.
I have a sunia, stock 5.1. It has pattern activated on the lock screen. Sometimes it is possible to unlock it without the pattern.
How did I do it?
I leave a notification on the lock screen, I swipe fast (from right to left) to dismiss it. Then I swipe from bottom to top and phone unlocks. Usually this has to be done in one fast movement.
Another way is having a music player notification (I tried with soundcloud). On the lock screen, drag from top to bottom. The notification gets bigger. Pull the quick settings panel a couple of times, then touch the notification and the phone unlocks without the pattern.
Can you guys try this and see and confirm it?

Swipe to the right when on lockscreen, tap the screen so you see the icons at the bottom and make sure the lock icon is unlocked.
