actually, it's the E911 icon.

The wave coming out means you have location services on. If you turn off location services, just the wave would disappear but the icon would remain.

Np.

I wonder why they have it there and it's not found in their manual, quite irritating. Took me a long time to figure it out too.

It's funny, people have been complaining about that icon for a while. I just realized its not on the Note 3 at all. Guess Samsung listened.
