Why is the orange dot ALWAYS on, with EVERY phone call? I've checked for apps using microphone, but none. Is the orange dot just REPRESENTING I'm on a phone call or is my call being RECORDED by a 3rd party? How do I know?? HELP! THANKS!!

The orange dot indicates the microphone is being used. As it is impossible to make or receive a phone call without using the microphone, yes it will show for all phone calls.
