Lock screen - contact & customization - HTC 10 Questions & Answers

Hello all,
I just moved from GPE to Sense on the HTC 10 and was wondering in what measure the lock screen can be customized.
I'm using nova launcher or google now launcher and when the screen is locked I seem to see the setup/dock from Sense launcher.
Also is it possible to customize the lock screen? Add a message/ widgets?
Thank you,

[Q] Rotate Rosie On Desire (home / lock)

Hello all
Does anyone know of a Rom or theme that has the ability to rotate the home and or lock screen and still retains all the Sense UI functionality.
I am aware that it is in the Cyanogenmod or at least it is on the Nexus one.
but this removes Sense. and alot of the HTC tools that I use very often.
Any suggestions?

[Q] Sense 4 Question (Weather Animations)...

Hi Guys,
Just started using Sense 4.0. Stupid question... much like the previous versions of Sense, the weather animations (wipers when raining, clouds across the screen, and etc...) that used to show up on the screen when the phone was unlocked; has Sense 4 gotten rid of these animations?
I mean, I see the weather animations in the clock/weather app, the Weather lock screen, but not the animations that used to show up on the home screen, after the phone was unlocked... Is that gone in Sense 4? Can someone confirm? Thank you.
The full screen animations are selected when you add a weather widget, such as the default clock. Just remove the clock, and add it again, it'll give you the option
No it hasn't gone from sense 4.0, you just need to remove the clock widget and then add it to the home screen again and it will give you the option to enable full screen weather animations. Hope this helps.
Edit: looks like edge3uk just beat me to it.
Hi
Yes you can get weather animations, you have a couple of choices:
On the Lock Screen
Go to Settings - Personalise - Lock Screen and select Weather. Now whenever you turn your phone on you get a weather animation for your location.
As a wallpaper
Go to Settings - Personalise - Wallpaper - Live Wallpapers and select the Weather
Note that these options, especially the live Wallpaper will be using a little bit more battery power then viewing a static wallpaper image, of course that only impacts you if the phone spents a lot of time on with the wallpaper on show.
Another option, generally more accurate, in real 3D, is to look out of a window or go outside Yes I too have animated weather, it just looks cool lol.
Edit: and another way is to use the widget as already posted, so that makes 3 so far.
Regards
Phil
It is off by default. Just long press the clock&weather widget and push it to edit, click your current location, and tick show full screen animation.
Guys,
thank you for ALL your wonderful replies! Indeed, the animations work for me now, BUT, I cannot figure out what "triggers" them on the home screen... they just happened randomly, I can't deliberately kick em off...
For example in earlier Sense versions, the way to kick it off was, EVERY time you unlocked the phone, and the home screen had the Weather clock, the animations would go....
That doesn't happen in Sense 4, can someone confirm this or tell me what I am missing?
Thanks again!
well for me they only appear after unlock.

[Q] Htc One V widget and scene not available

I bought a HTC One V unlocked and rooted.
Now the only difference I see are the widgets that are not very customizable,
I can't access them by long pressing the screen and I can only add them like Ido with icons.
I can't really personalize this phone because there is only one simple scene, lokc screen shortcuts do not appear when the phone is locked ,i don't have the weather widget that every htc has on the startup or when the phone is locked.
Can I change these so I can costumize widgets ,scenes, and add the weather widget (launch bar) on the lock screen????
Is there something like original htc one v launcher that makes it look like the original

Are you running a different launcher?
Replacement launchers cannot add apps and widgets from the app drawer without root access.
Exit the custom launcher, and use sense.

[Q] Replace TW lock screen?

Hi all,
I am trying to achieve a close-to-AOSP look. However, I'm having trouble with the lock screen. I've tried Holo Locker and Magic Locker, but both don't completely replace the TW locker---for instance, when you lock the screen, you hear two "ripple" sounds instead of one; also, I have PIN security forced on by the evil Exchange client, and the keypad that shows up is the TW one, not the Magic Locker one.
Any advice? I've searched a bit, but nothing seems applicable or working... Thanks!

Under - Menu>Settings>Lock Screen> set the lock screen to none & let holo locker do the rest !

[Q] Lockscreens+fingerprint scanner/ lock screen widgets

Hey XDA,
Does anyone know of any custom lockscreens that work with the finger scanner built into the note 4? I remember using custom lock screens such as widget locker on my old s3 and m8 but after unlocking my phone using widget locker, it just takes me to the screen where I would swipe my finger before, not allowing me to unlock my phone using the finger scanner and a custom lockscreen with only one screen.
Also, does anyone know of a way to get lockscreen widgets back? If I can't replace the bare lockscreen with a custom one filled with apps and widgets, why did samsung take away stock lock screen customization completely.
I really wish I could flash my problems away with a custom rom.
I use NILS to get notifications on the lockscreen along with the fingerprint unlock. I don't use any other widgets so it serves my needs so far.
