The pink icon with downward arrow probably indicates a download.  My
guess is some app is running in the background that presents the
download icon.  You could kill all the background apps, or use a task
killer app to kill them.  Or disable "draw over other apps" permission.

Still no idea what it is

 You could try taking your phone with its screenshot of the pink circle into your mobile provider's shop and asking the staff there. One of them might have seen it before and know what it is.
 

It seems the problem is caused by an app 'Floating Notes'
If you got a chance to see my screenshot, you may have noted a small yellow box (top Right) That is a minimised 'Floating Note'
If at any time that box is pulled down to see what it may be hiding, then the Pink Circle Icon appears and conversely, if pushed up, it disappears. Taa Daa
I have notified the Floating Notes 'compiler'
