To remove the alert, you have return the device's current position to the geolocationSuccess callback with a Position object as the parameter after the device is ready.

Use the below method. It will returns the device's current position as a Position object.

navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(geolocationSuccess,
                                         [geolocationError],
                                         [geolocationOptions]);

Example:

$(function(){
  document.addEventListener("deviceready", onDeviceReady, false);
})

function onDeviceReady() {
  navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(onSuccess, onError);     
}

function onSuccess(position) {
  // callback here 
}

function onError(error) { 
  // callback here
}

Please look at the phonegap documentation.
