We'll need @TPS's help to crack this issue:)
It depends if I keep the phone. Right now, I'm a little dissatisfied w/ both Amazon & the device, so it's still 50/50 whether I'll keep it.
Stay tuned.โฆ ๐
Still, I had a thought: does clearing Amazon Offers' App Data (like for YT after AG is running) help this @ all?

In theory it should be enough to clear Amazon Offers data&cache and to block it's network access.
However, it didn't help here: https://forum.adguard.com/index.php?threads/android-lock-screen-ads-on-amazon-prime-version-blu-r1-hd.13623/
Hello, I am the submitter of the ticket. Cleaning the cache still displays ads. I'm not sure if it got rid of the non-generic Amazon ads yet or not though. Since yesterday it seems only Amazon ads appear (i.e Kindle, and general "order from Amazon" ad). Will update.
It appears I am only getting two Amazon ads that must be hardcoded in. Was hoping they can be removed all together, but not a big deal. Smart on Amazon :)
Only sol'n to hard-coded ads is reflash, which, I read, is trickier every phone OS update. Still, thanks for excellent feedback! ๐
@AdguardTeam Still fiddling w/ Amazon to be able to contribute w/ this; will keep y'all posted. ๐
Let's keep it open for some time then.
@gpioneer what are these hardcoded ads? Some amazon-specific stuff?
Just to officially inform y'all: I didn't keep the Prime phone (nothing wrong w/ the device; just gotta a better phone for a better deal ๐), so I can't help with this.โฆ Other than moral support: Go @AdguardTeam! ๐๐๐๐๐
