Notifications icon? Anyone know

[smbrooks32]

Anyone know a link to find out what the different notification icons mean? I have one I can't seem to figure out what its for. It's a circle with cross hairs and a WiFi signal coming out the right side? Any help would be appreciated....

It is the "Google Location Services" If you uncheck it in Setting>Location services, then the "wifi signal" lines will disappear. I usually just leave it alone.

I think that is the emergency location services icon which cannot be turned off without root, if I'm not mistaken.

All of the icons are listed in the manual - pages 27 through 29.

And the icon you describe is "GPS Location Active". You have one or more GPS location services active.

Yeah I turned it off the signal indicator went away but the circle with cross hair is still there

Maybe, it should be there?

All my previous dumbphones had it, even without any data going through them.

Like I said earlier in this thread, it is the emergency location icon which cannot be removed without root.
