    There is an icon very similar to a 'Location' symbol that has appeared next to 'battery' symbol on my Z10.

    I am not sure what caused the icon to appear.

    Please advise what it refers to.

    Thanks.

    Screenshot, please.

    Nvm: It means an app is using location services.

    This means some application or service is accessing location services.

    Thanks all. I'm not sure which app is using the location service. I have recently used What's App, camera and Foursquare.

    I have all the apps closed. Is there a way to find which app is using the service.

    Cheers.

    Thanks for the tip. Just rebooted the system and the symbol disappeared.

    Had the same thing a few days ago. I went to Config-> Location Services and turned them off. There's a catch, you have to double check application permissions on that screen!
