Help 2nd lockscreen suddenly appeared

What apps have you recently installed or allowed to update? It's probably one of those that's responsible.
("Peel Smart Remote" was the classic example: they added an extra lockscreen in an app update. But they aren't the only ones).

Life Wireless is a Government Phone service perhaps it is something they added to their service? It is definitely not Peel Remote and you should be glad lol. Can be a bit of a pain at first but I use Peel Remote religously on my HTC One M9 and have disabled all of its lock screens, ad;s and anything else that is a nuisance. Still running free version just fine. You didn't root your phone with anything did you? I dont think that is the cause as i know most the main One Click Root app's and their nasties they put on during rooting.
Like Hadron said it could be many a app. Best is to look into the ones last installed / updated.

Yeah it's an obamaphone i have had a few I have worked on. One MVNO - Telrite ?
Good phones for older folk that don't use the phone a whole lot. Their OS is setup to be extremely user friendly.
