Is there a way to turn off the blue circle while using MyLocationOverlay in android

Question

I am currently using MyLocationOverlay to display my location. While being on MapView I am forcing the GPS to be turned on as well. However the blue circle around the marker is beyond annoying and I was curious if there's a way to remove it?

Thanks Rajat

Your best bet is to write a custom class to extend MyLocationOverlay and Override drawMyLocation() specifically. This will allow you to draw whatever you would like, and leave out whatever you'd like to leave out. This is the example I followed:

How can I use a custom bitmap for the "you are here" point in a MyLocationOverlay?
