Are you using a lock screen or launcher application other than the default one from the manufacturer?

Have you tried running the phone in Safe Mode to rule out any applications you installed. Safe Mode will only allow applications that came with the phone to run?

I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.

I know I would not like to see ads all the time on the home screen so I can unlock my device Chelit53. This happens when you install an application on the phone that causes advertisements. Our phones do not put advertisements on the device. Have you downloaded any new apps lately when this started?
