Like many other people, I hate the sense style lock screen on the HTC one. After installing the GEL launcher to a more stock android experience all I wanted to do was get rid of the sense lock screen but the problem was my phone isn't rooted. But I found a way to get the stock lock screen minus some of it's features and here's how:
1. Personalize> Lock Screen Style> Select the No Lock Screen
2. Apps> All> HTC Lock Screen> Click force close
3. Apps> All> Lock Screen Command Control> Click Disable
4. Restart your phone
After doing these steps you should now have the stock android lock screen, the only problem being that so far I can only get it to have the unlock option instead of also the Google and camera unlocks. To get widgets however, you can go to Personalize> Lock Screen Style> widgets> settings> And then click the widget that you would like on the lock screen. By disabling the sense lock screen like this and instead of using an install method it is much easier to revert back to the sense lock screen by just enabling the Lock Screen Command Control.
Hope this has helped some of you who aren't rooted and are trying to get rid of the sense lock screen.

I realise that the sense lock screen seems to run interdependently from the ICS lock screen. Which means I can disable the ICS lock screen, but I will still encounter the sense lock screen. That kinda sucks.
I have used apps like "No Lock" but it takes ages to wake up the device and is buggy.
Any guys have any idea? I'm not really keen not having any lock screen...
Thanks for reading!
dun think u can do it yet...
I agree, that's just an idiotic design. If I use any method of securing my phone, it takes three tasks to get in:
* Press power button
* Drag silly ring around
* Perform ICS unlock task (face, pin, whatever)
That's just daft. HTC, if you're listening, you need to provide a way to disable your lock screen.
for all there want theres lockscreen gone get
Keyguard Disabler its works on HTC One X

I believe I seen people saying to rename HTCLockscreen.apk or delete it. The only bug with it is that you have to unlock the phone, then answer the phone call.

Rename the HTClockscreen.apk to HTClockscreen.bak..... its in system apps and reboot your device....
Removing the HTC sense lock ring
I too was going crazy with this isue, but I finally found a solution and wanted to share with you guys/girls.
My phone is the HTC one V with HTC Sense ver.4
Ok so, first thing is to disable all security on the HTC Sense.
This will give the default pull ring when u try to unlock the phone
Now i installed 2 things , the go launcher EX and the Go Locker. The settings you need to change are in Go Locker so you shouldn't need go launcher EX hopefully i just prefer it over HTC Sense.
Ok so, launch Go Locker and (if you get a screentalking about locking the home key i just by passed that by clicking "set later") click setting icon on top right corner,
All seeting stayed on Default except the following :
activate Go Locker : ON
And now go to security:
I clicked on pattern
drew my pattern and saved it
and all the way to the bottom you see a setting called:
Password unlock (directly enter the password, skip the lock screen page) --> THIS IS THE ELUDED SETTING TURN THIS ON
and no more slide lock (and hopefully no ring i haven't tried it without go launcher ex) when you try and unlock your phone it will take you directly to the pattern screen
WOO HOO!!!
lock screen : disabled this was the default i didn't change it
advanced setting -->
Turn off system lock : Select "none" to prevent showing double lock --> just better to disable all security on the HTC Sense
Hope this helps

that never worked for me, and I got the stock android lock screen but now IU have no way to add shortcuts to it... anyone know?
I am attempting to use Go Locker as my phone's lock screen instead of the stock screen locker. For a bit, the Go Locker worked fine on its own. Now, I find that the default screen lock comes up as well as the Go locker screen. So I am required to unlock both to gain access to the screens on my phone. How do I disable the stock screen locker?

If you're on a Sense ROM, go to Settings>Personalize>Skins and select the skin that doesn't have a lockscreen. Should be good to go then.
The advice is free....the bandwidth, not so much
I have tried No Lock and No Lock Screen from the Play Store with limited success. I tried renaming HTCLockscreen in system/app and the similar in data\data, that didn't disable but defaulted to the android lock screen. BTW, I understand the risks inherent in running without a lockscreen but still choose to not use it. Does anyone know how to disable this feature?
I have an lg g3 and i really want to try to use a custom lock screen. without rooting. however as we all know the tap to lock function ceases to work if you change the lock screen. any suggestions? im sure this is already covered but i was wondering if there was a lock screen out there that has gestures so like with nova launcher. you can just enable a lock the screen or turn off the screen app.
I am aware of this. Could you rephrase your statement? as it does not really answer my question. I'm not using the stock launcher. I'm using nova launcher. I know that you can use a non stock launcher and still tap the screen but for the lock screen you have to tap the notification bar if you want to use a non-stock lockscreen. What I want to do see if there is a way around it
