Alarm Controller is sending me unwanted notifications, ads

Question

From many days I am getting unwanted ads and notifications. I uninstalled many app, and also did a factory reset also, After searching, I found Alarm Controller may be the culprit. As I lock my screen and the then try to unlock it again, the on-screen ads blinks all the time. I had a screenshot of the app

Please help me to get rid of these ads. Let me know if any more information needed.

Answer

At last I got a solution or workaround, I installed NoRoot Data Firewall and then created a VPN on my own mobile and now I am having full authority to whom to give access to network and whom to not.



This is just the workaround I found, it doesn't remove the Malware. But it worked and get me out of the frustration.
