i saw in some old videos that they found here an option called Native to add new unit for native ads but i did not find it on mine!!
PLEASE HELP ME !! what need i to do to add a native ads using kotlin code ?
Google provides an article on how it is done.
Check it out and see if it helps.
As for the Unit ID, you will need to generate it from Admob's dashboard.
You can get a generat idea on how to do it following Admob's guide
Next time, make sure you do a quick search. This was the very first result from Google when querying "Android Native Ads"
Java
NativeExpressAdView adView = (NativeExpressAdView)findViewById(R.id.adView);
AdRequest request = new AdRequest.Builder()
.addTestDevice("DEVICE_ID")
.build();
adView.loadAd(request);
In Xml
<com.google.android.gms.ads.NativeExpressAdView
android:id="#+id/adView"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
ads:adUnitId="Your ID"
ads:adSize="320x150">

I add admob for my app as guide:
https://firebase.google.com/docs/admob/android/quick-start
and
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OLLLRUPICcc&list=PLOU2XLYxmsIKX0pUJV3uqp6N3NeHwHh0c&index=1&spfreload=5
But admob is only view:
Nice job! You're displaying a 320x50 test ad from admob
It does NOT change other ads. Please help me.
Code as below:
In activity at onCreate:
MobileAds.initialize(this, "ca-app-pub-9518053516260440/6844465750");
AdView mAdView = (AdView) findViewById(R.id.adView);
AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest.Builder().build();
mAdView.loadAd(adRequest);
in xml:
<com.google.android.gms.ads.AdView
xmlns:ads="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:id="#+id/adView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="50dp"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
ads:adSize="BANNER"
ads:adUnitId="ca-app-pub-3940256099942544/6300978111">
</com.google.android.gms.ads.AdView>
Acording to the Quickstart
If you haven't created an AdMob account and registered an app yet,
there's no better time than now. If you're just experimenting with the
SDK in a Hello World app, though, you can use this App ID to call the
initialize method: ca-app-pub-3940256099942544~3347511713.
You are using testing appID. To make it work you need to create your own account. Than create application and use your own application ID. This will let you customize what ads should show and it will show actual ads. But for testing you should use this AppID, because you should not click on your own ads.
Fix your appID in xml. But even then it takes some time to actualy start working. It might take about day to start showing real ads.
I have a problem with my Android App which I'm trying to add ads for, the weird thing is that the ad loads perfectly on the first activity, but none of the others. I've followed the instructions on https://developers.google.com/admob/android/existing-app, but to no avail it still only works with the first activity. I have a different Ad Unit ID for each activity that I have ads on as well, and have copy-pasted them from the website to avoid mistakes, and have removed all whitespace.
The response I get is:
There was a problem getting an ad response. ErrorCode: 0
Failed to load ad: 0
I've done research on why I'd get this response from AdMob, and I've tried the solutions I have found, they are to add the correct version (and check for updates) of the Google Play Services to my build.gradle file, to add the version to my manifest file, I am running it on the stock rom that came with a real phone (LG G4 running Lollipop) I even tried on a different phone which was also running stock Android to get the same result.
The way I load the ads onto my page is with this code:
AdView mAdView = (AdView) findViewById(R.id.adView);
AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest.Builder().build();
mAdView.loadAd(adRequest);
This is the same on every activity with ads on it.
This is a snippet of my Manifest file:
<meta-data
android:name="com.google.android.gms.version"
android:value="#integer/google_play_services_version" />
Finally, this is the ad snippet of my layout file, which is also the same in all of my layouts:
<com.google.android.gms.ads.AdView
android:id="#+id/adView"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
ads:adSize="BANNER"
ads:adUnitId="#string/banner_home">
</com.google.android.gms.ads.AdView>
I have a string resource for each different activity Ad Unit ID.
It just started working, I changed nothing. Maybe there was a problem building it before? Who knows, thanks for all the help though guys.
AdView adView = findViewById(R.id.adView);
AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest.Builder()
.addTestDevice(AdRequest.DEVICE_ID_EMULATOR)
.build();
adView.loadAd(adRequest);
Whenever you load Admob banner ad this gives 0 error.This is just because you have not signed it.you must load and show Test admob Banner ad.if test ad is servering perfectly then you will get right ad in signed apk.0 error may be just because you have not signed apk
did you added this line in your manifest file?
<activity
android:name="com.google.android.gms.ads.AdActivity"
android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|orientation|screenLayout|uiMode|screenSize|smallestScreenSize" />
or try like this
Open your adMob account and create new sets of keys,and put this keys(banner/interstitial)in your project.this is happens to me once i fixed like this,try this solution. or still issues create new app (just change the name) in adMob and create new keys
I am trying to implement Admob in Android and I am seeing requests coming into AdMob. However, I am not seeing the Admob ads being displayed on the Android screen in the emulator and my Android test phones as well.
As stated before, I can see the requests coming into my AdMob account. However, the content is not being shown. Is there something that needs to be enabled in my account, the main.xml, AndroidManifest.xml, or in the loading of the application?
My application configuration and code are below. Please advise on what is needed. Thanks!
AndroidManifest:
<meta-data
android:value="My Publisher ID"
android:name="ADMOB_PUBLISHER_ID" />
<activity android:name="com.admob.android.ads.AdMobActivity"/>

android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"

ads:adUnitId="My Publisher ID"
ads:loadAdOnCreate="true"/>
On Create Code:
AdView adView = (AdView)this.findViewById(R.id.adView);
AdRequest re = new AdRequest();
re.setTesting(true);
adView.loadAd(re);
Any help is appreciated!!
Make sure that the layout the AdView is embedded in does not impose any padding on the AdView. The AdView's size has to be exactly 320x50 dip. It does not show up if it does not get enough room.
Also check the log output of your device. In Eclipse switch to the DDMS perspective, select your device and watch the LogCat output.
I had a similar issue. If you have any padding on your parent layout then you may not have enough width for the ads. If you have it in a portrait view try switching to a landscape view to see if it shows. If it does than you most likely have a width issue somewhere in your layout.
It usually takes some time for ads to start appearing via admob. This happens in the case when you have just registered on admob and started up with your first application. If the suggestions given above are taken care of and if your admob page shows a "green" status, I wont worry about it too much. Once your fill rate increases, you will start to see more and more ads.
Go to app settings on admob.com and make sure use location
data for ads is turned off if your app is not a location based app.
Use location data for ads is used to filter ads based on location and
works only on app with location permission granted. If app does not use
location permission, ads will not show.
Make sure your have filled payment details
Be sure that your Admob layout is displaying in xml view. Put your admob view inside RelativeLayout and try to use android:alignparentBottom:true
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:ads="http://schemas.android.com/apk/lib/com.google.ads"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<!--Do our code that you want to show in xml -->
<!--Put adview in bottom of screen -->
<com.google.ads.AdView
android:id="#+id/adView"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
ads:adSize="BANNER"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
ads:adUnitId="#string/addmob_id"
ads:loadAdOnCreate="true"
ads:testDevices="HT9CWP803129" />
</RelativeLayout>
</LinearLayout>
In your java code put these lines in onCreate method
// Load addvertisment
AdView adView = (AdView) findViewById(R.id.adView);
// Request for Ads
AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest.Builder().addTestDevice("FF9CD441FA62FD456D7D571B91DD11DD").build();
adView.loadAd(adRequest);
This worked in my code, Hope it will help you too.
Be carefull with the id, there are 2 codes: the editor number (like this: pub-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx) and the other is the banner id (like this: ca-app-pub-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/xxxxxxxxxx)
You need to use the last one, if you use the first doesnt work:)
You are using
ads:adUnitId="My Publisher ID"
replace it with
ads:adUnitId="Here AdUnitId for this app"
Note: You have to create app on Admob and you will get AdUnitId for that created app. You don't have to use Publisher ID.
I see there are two problems in your code based on what you posted:-
The <metadata> section should contain the ADMOB_APP_ID instead of your
publisher ID. This should be declared under <application> tag in
ApplicationManifest.xml.
<meta-data
android:name="com.google.android.gms.ads.APPLICATION_ID"
android:value="[ADMOB_APP_ID]"/>
you can find ADMOB_APP_ID by on ADMOB dashboard, click on the application
and check "App Settings". You can see the APP_ID which starts
typically with ca-app-pub-0123456789012345.
The second problem is, where you have declared AdView in your layout.
Remember you have to provide Ad unit not your publisherID, which
you can create in ADMOB dashboard by clicking on Ad Unit tab
under your application. Put the correct "ad unit" against your
AdView as below.
ads:adUnitId="ca-app-pub-3940256099942544/6300978111" <!-- remember this is adUnit not App ID and this value above is for test banner Ad. -->
Once you have fixed above problems, do the following:-
MobileAds.initialize(this, "YOUR_ADMOB_APP_ID"); in onCreate of your first Activity. This needs to be done only once and thus the right place is either your first activity or at application's onCreate callback.
Find the AdView in the activity onCreate where you have included AdView in the layout.
mAdView = findViewById(R.id.adView);
AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest.Builder().build();
mAdView.loadAd(adRequest);
Test Ads work by providing test adunit published by google.
mAdView.setAdSize(AdSize.BANNER);
mAdView.setAdUnitId("ca-app-pub-3940256099942544/6300978111");
Additionally, if you want to handle Ad events, do as follows:-
mAdView.setAdListener(new AdListener() {
#Override
public void onAdLoaded() {
// Code to be executed when an ad finishes loading.
}
#Override
public void onAdFailedToLoad(int errorCode) {
// Code to be executed when an ad request fails.
}
#Override
public void onAdOpened() {
// Code to be executed when an ad opens an overlay that
// covers the screen.
}
#Override
public void onAdLeftApplication() {
// Code to be executed when the user has left the app.
}
#Override
public void onAdClosed() {
// Code to be executed when when the user is about to return
// to the app after tapping on an ad.
}
});
Some of these possible solutions may sound obvious, but make sure you have these completed:
-replace "My Publisher ID" in android:value="My Publisher ID" with your actual publisher ID.
-make sure to include the internet permission in your manifest file:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
If you have completed those, you can also try placing the following code in the "On create" section instead of your current:
AdView adView = (AdView)this.findViewById(R.id.adView);
AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest();
adRequest.setTesting(true);
adView.loadAd(adRequest);
adView.loadAd(new AdRequest());
or
AdManager.setTestDevices( new String[] {AdManager.TEST_EMULATOR});
AdView adView = (AdView)findViewById(R.id.adView);
adView.requestFreshAd();
Before publishing, don't forget be sure to get rid of the setTestDevice though!
make sure, your admob publisher ID is correct. It had happend with me once and I could not figure out the error for about 15 days.
In Admob every app that you submit gets a different publisher ID. It is unique per Application and not per User.
It might be an issue with the space, you need to ensure that the space is available for the ad to be displayed. If you have a padding on the parent layout it might reduce the space available. According to the google Admob docs no ad will be displayed if the space isn't there for it to be displayed.
"The SDK will request whatever size the requesting AdView was instantiated with. If there isn't enough space on the device's screen to display the ad, nothing will be shown."
So my suggestion is to ensure no padding is on the parent layout and actually assign a height and width to the banner ad like this
<com.google.ads.AdView
android:id="#+id/adView"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_width="#dimen/banner_width"
android:layout_height="#dimen/banner_height"
ads:adSize="BANNER"
ads:adUnitId="My Publisher ID"
ads:loadAdOnCreate="true"/>
And store the appropriate dimensions in your dimens.xml in the values folder.
This is because admin inventory requires some requests to be generated to check that the app can make some profit!
Please let setup the ads properly and publish the app, after about 1k requests are made, the ads will automatically show up!
I too was suffering from this problem and got my answer when I published my own app!
If admob "App Id" and "Unit Id" is correct then upload on google play store it will show the add.
I was facing same type of issue but after upload on google play it resolve automatic.
My ads were shown by just having few request here are the following steps I made
Get More Requests You are saying that 400 imp but no ads just make another ad unit in same app it will start showing I also did this this method and ad started In my previous ad unit it have many request but no imp then I made another unit it started showing ads
Have patient in my account it take 4 days to show ads and my account was approved by Google in 1 hr it take a lot of time to build inventory in the server so be patient you will have your ads
Complaint Google at admob complatint they will check your app and chances of app is approved is 50-50%
I want to use xml to add a banner ad to my app. To understand how to do this, I read through the Google AdMob Ads Android Banner XML tutorial. There's even example code. However, the example project doesn't display ads on my device (a Motorola xt720). I get nothing relevant in LogCat.
If I go to project settings and remove the 4.0.4 jar and add the 4.1.0 jar that I downloaded with Android SDK and AVD Manager (downloaded "Google Admob Ads Sdk package, revision 2" and the file is android-sdk-linux_86/extras/google/admob_ads_sdk/GoogleAdMobAdsSdk-4.1.0.jar), then I get this in LogCat.
ERROR/Ads(4486): AdView missing
required XML attribute "adSize".
INFO/Ads(4486): To get test ads on
this device, call
adRequest.addTestDevice("00000000000000000000000000000000");
I make that change:
AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest();
adRequest.addTestDevice("00000000000000000000000000000000");
adView.loadAd(adRequest);
And now I get this:
ERROR/Ads(5018): AdView missing required XML attribute "adSize".
WARN/Ads(5018): Invalid unknown request error: Cannot determine request type. Is your ad unit id correct?
INFO/Ads(5018): onFailedToReceiveAd(Invalid Google Ad request.)
If I edit main.xml to fix the ads:adUnitId to be the value I have in my admob account, I still get the same error. As you can see, I am setting my adSize:
<com.google.ads.AdView
android:id="#+id/adView"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
ads:adUnitId="000000000000000"
ads:adSize="BANNER" />
So in summary:
I fixed the library version
I added my test device
I set my ads:adUnitId
But I still get AdView missing required XML attribute "adSize"
What am I doing wrong?
There are some changes to the way Admob works in version 4.1.0
There's a discussion on Google Groups about this issue and how they haven't updated the documentation.
Google employee Tim posted:
1) Remove attrs.xml (or if you need it for your own custom attributes, remove the parts related to AdViews).
2) Change the namespace in your layout from xmlns:ads="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/com.your.packagename" to xmlns:ads="http://schemas.android.com/apk/lib/com.google.ads"
Once you have made those two changes (along with the other changes you already made), you should now see an ad.
I want to use Admob in my app. I've downloaded the SDK and followed the steps. Sometimes, I get an ad in return, but most of the time, I get an entry in LogCat that says "Server did not find any ads" or something to that effect. Test mode is enabled, says the Admob site. I think I might be doing something wrong. Where can I get a step-by-step guide to insert admob ads in Android apps? The Admob developer site is rather lacking.
Also, let's assume that everything's gone well and that I'd now like to deploy the app. How do I turn off test mode for Admob ads?
Thank you.
Download the AdMob jar file http://www.admob.com/my_sites/
Create a package on your project and call it "libs" and paste this file AdMob.jar there
Right click on your project a select the library, add there the path for the ADMOB.jar you just saved.
If you're creating your AdView on your XML, you can add this line.
This is an example for testing. When you get your own ID from ADMob, place it on the adUnitID and erase the test line.
com.google.ads.AdView
android:id="#+id/adView1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
ads:adSize="BANNER"
ads:adUnitId="a14f59e5c442767"
ads:testDevices="TEST_EMULATOR, TEST_DEVICE_ID"
ads:loadAdOnCreate="true"
</com.google.ads.AdView>
Now go to your .java that it calling this layout and create your AdView
AdView adView = (AdView)this.findViewById(R.id.adView1);
adView.loadAd(new AdRequest());
This is how I do and its been working good so far.
Sorry about bad english, to much code and no sleep!
just follow the instructions on this site:
http://developer.admob.com/wiki/Android#AdMob_Android_SDK
I guess you did not activate the test mode for your device or the emulator?!
AdManager.setTestDevices( new String[] {
AdManager.TEST_EMULATOR, // Android emulator
"E83D20734F72FB3108F104ABC0FFC738", // My T-Mobile G1 Test Phone
} );
It seems as though this might have changed to
AdRequest request = new AdRequest();
request.addTestDevice(AdRequest.TEST_EMULATOR);
request.addTestDevice("E83D20734F72FB3108F104ABC0FFC738"); // My T-Mobile G1 test phone
see http://code.google.com/mobile/ads/docs/android/intermediate.html
As per Tom's comment below the value to provide for addTestDevice is actually the MD5 hash of the device ID. YOu can get this from the logcat.
Just add a permission to the Android mainfest:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
Check it once.
Then add this code:
AdManager.setTestDevices( new String[] {
AdManager.TEST_EMULATOR, // Android emulator
"E83D20734F72FB3108F104ABC0FFC738", // My T-Mobile G1 Test Phone
} );
You don't need to call it programmatically.
It took me a while until I get what device is AdMob's sdk what expecting cuz' I was thinking it was something related to the real device like ( adb devices )
But here is a comment from the official documentation that cleared it up.
There will be a log message with the code needed to add the current
device to the list of test devices
You may get an message similar to it
I/Ads(26674): To get test ads on this device, call adRequest.addTestDevice("F1254CDFBA84BDC27F5C7C6E12445D06");
All you have to do after that is to place this ID into your layout xml as below
<com.google.ads.AdView
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:id="#+id/adView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
ads:adSize="BANNER"
ads:adUnitId="#string/publisherId"
ads:loadAdOnCreate="true"
ads:testDevices="TEST_EMULATOR, F1254CDFBA84BDC27F5C7C6E12445D06" />
Hope it helps you guys out
