The option to have no lock screen is removed in Sense 5.5.

Here's a short article that explains differences: How to set up lock screen on HTC One with 4.3/4.4.2 and Sense 5.5 | Droider.eu

Also: HTC Sense 5.5 vs Sense 5: New features, tweaks and changes reviewed - Pocket-lint

Has anyone find out how to get rid of the slide to unlock? I have my screen lock set to none but still have to swipe to unlock.

Update on my phone: BRICKED
If you press the volume up and down keys at the same time and then press Power during the update, you get a status page and mine looks like this:

Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifiyig update package...
Installing update...
Warning: No file_contextsPreparing wr_bin tool...
Preparing recovery.zip...
Running wr_bin tool...

The progress bar moves along until about 20% at which point the Warning message appears and it stops.

Tap to pay with Wallet works! I've been waiting for this and confirmed it to work at least at my office. I'll have to try it at a store later. Pretty sure this was part of the upgrade but I know I'll quickly be corrected if not

And the decision that this is my last HTC phone continues to get supported ;-)

And this general move to monochrome - away from color - is ugly too. Not that THAT is HTC's fault, but it's one less thing for me to like about this update. The separation of phone and notification volumes is great - and HUGE for me. But as is typical, for every positive there's a negative.

Got my updates, everything went smooth. Seems like a decent update, nothing major was changed really, but no issues either so cant really complain.

I really like the new calendar improvements, my hangouts lost all messages i had before so I am throwing it away and going back to messages.Download and uploads are slower for me.

How long does it take for the HTC apps to download? The circle just spins updating but no apps load.

Anyone had it on their device long enough to notice if either the charging time is faster or if there are any improvements in battery life whatsoever? My wife's DNA really took a nosedive on battery life after the last update in December. A hard reset helped a bit but not much.

All I get is no new apps for this device. It might have some purpose at a later date, but, it seems have been mistakenly included.

Just installed no lock from the play store and it works.

This will probably take a few days to tell. Everyone will be using their phones more than usual the first few days to find the changes.

Which one? I just tried the one by BoD... Doesn't work.

Notice the new Wifi notification (I actually have 2 now, one with a house - anybody know what that's about?)

I was wondering that myself. The house looks like just the indicator of a WiFi connection, and the other looks like the original WiFi indicator but with arrows showing data transfer. I don't know why we would need two of them. It just takes up extra notification bar real estate.
