    I think people who have official Cyan update are witnessing this. It is not visible to those who run their phones on DP-8.1/DP 8.1 GDR 1

    I haven't seen it since WP8.

    I've been using 8.1 Developer Preview since April 2014.

    It means data is being transferred via the WiFi network.

    It depends on your carrier. So it's okay if you don't have it.

    Carrier dependency with WiFi or Firmware?

    I think cyan update only have. I'm using DP without cyan last time don't have this small arrow. After update to cyan have this small arrow show your data activity. Same small arrow will appear showing north west regardless downloading or uploading. Currently I'm using cyan with GDR1 DP still have this arrow.

    I have the same arrows on my icon that has Lumia black. Is it related to screen res? Mines 1080p so I have it, but I don't remember them there on my 928.

    Firmware. The carrier has control over how some of the things on your phone look

    It's not so general.. Countries like India doesn't have Operator control on updates..

    This is a firmware inclusion, mostly with Cyan but some carriers have released a firmware for phones that has the small inclusion in it. It shows for both Wi-Fi and Cellular Data. It's a way to show that data is being transferred.
