How to change the position or remove the default GPS icon of google maps?

I am new with google maps and its apis.Here i have loaded google map and trying to change the position of that GPS icon in attached image but its not getting moved from its position.

I have loaded map using SupportMapFragment and used getMapAsync method to get object of map in onMapReady() method.I know if i remove getMapAsync that icon will be removed but without it i can't get the object of map.So this is the issue i am facing.

Is there any to move position of it or remove it. Help will be appreciated.Thank you.
