Help with HTC One m7

[LemonWAG1]

I want to get widgets on my main lockscreen,
but I can't find a way to figure it out..

I only can get them on my second lockscreen...

I've searched a bit on the internet but everyone keeps saying that I need to enable "Enable Lockscreen Widgets" but I don't got that option...

I'm running 4.4.2 btw.

Hope anyone can help me out!

Do you have BlinkFeed enabled?

Its most likely Sense that has changed the settings a little so that it works like HTC want it to - without rooting you might not be able to have widgets on the first screen

That article says that HTC only allows a single widget,

I've just tried it on my HTC one. All I had to do was swipe to the right and I had the option browse my music and add widgets on my lockscreen.

That's the whole point, I dont want to swipe to the right I just want it on my mainscreen.

I want to use it for notifications, and if I need to swipe to the right I also can pull down my status bar..

I dont mind if I only can do one widget, cause I only need one, but I cant even delete the clock and replace it with something else.. I cant do anything...

Rooting would probably help you there - And as it's HTC it won't void your warranty, If you feel comfortable doing that then it's up to you

Your best bet would be a custom ROM. I doubt if there is any other way.

I use a Note 3 - and samsung uses a trip counter, so if you root, the value changes from 0 to 1 (It's Irreversible) and samsung says that it voids your warranty (which I have done) but none of the others work like this and as long as you are still able to flash a stock firmware, your warranty is essentially fine

Rooting can be a daunting process, It took me a while to get to know the general process - It's probably not sensible for most people to try

Gosh. I am rooting right now and damn it sure is confusing since the recovery file is hard to find now.

Edit: F***ing perfect. I can't open my recovery file now that it has been corrupt.
