Welcome to Android Central! Sorry, but what do you mean by a met widget?

Re: unwanted met widget on lockscreen after lollipop update

hi, what i mean is that there now is a weather symbol on the lockscreen with a temperature in fahrenheit and a position symbol with the nearest city district.
the symbol is positioned about halfway between the lock pattern and the notification line. i have never used any meteo app other than WEATHER PRO which works in degree celsius and which i had never configured to appear on the lockscreen. so it is a completely new phenomenon after updating to lollipop 5.01 with KIES3.
thanks for any thoughts on this, thomas

Yeah, that sure doesn't look like a notification. I'll have to defer to others who have an S4.
