@Steelerz Did you ever try disabling any of these with results?

@Steelerz If the lock screen ads are playing, then they must be running somewhere. Could they be associated with an app you use regularly?

@Steelerz Have you run any trusted spyware/malware scanning apps like Malwarebytes?

@Steelerz 30 apps? Woah, pretty massive. Glad to hear your problem is fixed though!
