My Samsung Droid Charge has an icon in my status bar that looks like a plus inside a diamond with three curved lines extending from its right side. It is the left-most icon in the right adjusted icons in the status bar of this home screen capture.

What is this icon for? Also, is there a setting where I can remove it?

According to the manual (WARNING: pdf file) for the phone (page 24), it is the GPS icon.

  • Of course, I should have RTFM. I did check out the Android 2.2.x PDF but didn't think to look at the manual for my actual phone.

According to the user manual (page 31 in my PDF viewer, actual page 24), that means your GPS is on/in use. You can check your system settings to disable location services (usually Settings->Location and Security).
