java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to get provider com.google.android.gms.ads.MobileAdsInitProvider: java.lang.IllegalStateException

Suddenly, I tried to open my application and the app did not wanted to start. It stopped before opening it. I started searching and tried all of other similar questions, but none worked. this is my log:

here is my androidManifest.xml:
note that the code has no meta-data tag. But I never needed it until now. Also my app does not use ads on it.

I keep trying anyways.

In your manifest file , inside the application tag put this code
<application>
<!-- Sample AdMob App ID: ca-app-pub-3940256099942544~3347511713 -->
<meta-data
android:name="com.google.android.gms.ads.APPLICATION_ID"
/// pass the key generated from your admob which contains ~(APP ID)
android:value="ca-app-pub-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx~yyyyyyyyyy"/> //
</application>

just check whether meta-data tag is out of activity tag
if it is like this
<manifest>
<application>
<activity>
<meta-data>
android:name="com.google.android.gms.ads.APPLICATION_ID"
android:value="ca-app-pub-4347201915048498~6120388314"/>
</activity>
</application>
</manifest>
this should be changed to this
<manifest>
<application>
<activity>
</activity>
<meta-data
android:name="com.google.android.gms.ads.APPLICATION_ID"
android:value="ca-app-pub-4347201915048498~6120388314"/>
</application>
</manifest>

Cordova geolocation plugin & cordova firebase plugin conflicting

I'm facing this issue while working with two plugins:
cordova-plugin-geolocation-firebase and cordova-plugin-firebase.
Seems like both of them try to add the extension googleServices which is causing the build to fail. Any help with this will be really helpful :)

Cause of Error Message "Error:(27) Tag <manifest> attribute package has invalid type 4."

When trying to build my app, I get the following error message: "Error:(27) Tag <manifest> attribute package has invalid type 4." Any ideas on what is causing this? Here is a copy of my manifest:
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.dummy.tanc">
<application
android:supportsRtl="true"
android:allowBackup="true"
android:fullBackupContent="false"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme" >
<meta-data android:name="com.google.android.gms.games.APP_ID"
android:value="#string/app_id" />
<meta-data android:name="com.google.android.gms.version"
android:value="#integer/google_play_services_version"/>
<activity
android:name="com.google.example.games.tanc.MainActivity"
android:label="#string/title_activity_main"
android:screenOrientation="portrait" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
</manifest>

I think it is because, in your manifest, you've set your package name (line 2) to be
package="com.dummy.tanc"
and in when defining the activity (line 18), you've used
android:name="com.google.example.games.tanc.MainActivity"
Because of this mismatch, the issue could be arising. Change the line 18 to
android:name="com.dummy.tanc.MainActivity"

It means attribute package has type float but not string.
I guess your package name contains only numbers, something like package="1.0".

ACRA not sending to eMail

I am trying to send crash reports to email but when my app crashes nothing happens. I tried messing around with configurations but i just kept getting errors (unknown member mostly, wth that is). Here's my code for the class.
#ReportsCrashes(
mailTo = "me#gmail.com")
public class MyApplication extends Application
{
#Override
public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate();
// The following line triggers the initialization of ACRA
ACRA.init(this);
}
}
My manifest:
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.ghostdevelopment.ueni2"
android:versionCode="1"
android:versionName="1.0"
android:debuggable="true">
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"></uses-permission>
<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="8"
android:targetSdkVersion="25" />
<application
android:name="MyApplication"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme" >
<activity
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:name="com.ghostdevelopment.ueni2.MainActivity" >
<intent-filter >
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity
android:label="Ship Database"
android:name=".ShipInfo" />
</application>
</manifest>

According to your logcat it appears that your app has not included the ACRA library. You need to configure your build so that ACRA is included in your APK.

AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest.Builder().build();
mInterstitialAd.loadAd(adRequest);
if (mInterstitialAd != null && mInterstitialAd.isLoaded()) {
mInterstitialAd.show();
}

Besides there is also a compilation error:
Conversion of dalvik format failed with error code 1
I tried about 20 answers, still not working.
I also dont know whether the problem is the unit id, I can change
mInterstitialAd.setAdUnitId("xxx/xxx");
to:
mInterstitialAd.setAdUnitId("xxx");
and I got the same errors.
I use the following external libraries:
android support v4&v7, picasso, ftpclient(commons, httpmime),FAB
Does somebody have a advice?
Greetings

Solution found!
Seems like some features in CyanogenMod blocks AdMob.
Flashed a new version WITHOUT Adaware and blocking Tools.
WORKING NOW :D
