GPS Location Active: One or more GPS location
services are active. See “Location services"
Location services control your device's use of GPS signals.
Some apps may require one or more location services be
turned On for full app functionality.
GPS signals may be affected by your surroundings, including:
• Buildings
• Tunnels or underground structures
• Weather conditions
• High-voltage or electromagnetic fields
• Tinted windows
Important! Verizon Wireless values your privacy. Because of
this, your phone is defaulted to only acquire your
location when you dial 911. To use Location-Based
Services, you must first enable location services on
your phone

"one or more GPS location services are active. See 'Location Services' on p137".
In other words, you have apps running that want to locate you using GPS.

Not really, it just means that you have location services turned on, not that apps are currently trying to find you.

I believe it might be Weather Bug elite. I have it (it was a free app of the day on Amazon a while back), but I have a background color (pink) on mine. I might try it w/o the background. I love it!! I always check my weather a couple times a day
