Admob Banner Ad not loading in Android

My Admob Banner ad in not loading.
Toast displays that "Banner add is loaded".
I tried many other solutions provided on stackoverflow but none seemed to work for me.
MainActivity.java
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
private AdView mBannerAd;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
mBannerAd = (AdView) findViewById(R.id.banner_ad);
AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest.Builder()
.addTestDevice("A5E3E2068BD88202CBC281AD7XXXXXXX")
.build();
mBannerAd.loadAd(adRequest);
mBannerAd.setAdListener(new AdListener() {
#Override
public void onAdClosed() {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Closing the Banner Ad", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
#Override
public void onAdLoaded() {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Banner Ad is loaded", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
});
}
}

Assuming that:-
You have complete the steps mentioned here to display a test ad
successfully
This is not a test ad but an actual ad unit.
You have replaced test ad unit ID with the actual ad unit ID
If these steps are done, then It will take an hour or two to get your ad unit displayed in the app.

Your code looks fine. You should remove the test devices, addTestDevice, though:
Change:
AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest.Builder()
.addTestDevice("A5E3E2068BD88202CBC281AD7XXXXXXX")
.build();
to:
AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest.Builder().build();

Initialize MobileAds in onCreate() like this:
MobileAds.initialize(MainActivity.this,"YOUR_APP_ID));

Ques: Why we use this .. ???????
.addTestDevice(AdRequest.DEVICE_ID_EMULATOR)
.addTestDevice("INSERT_YOUR_HASHED_DEVICE_ID_HERE")
I have included google_play_lib into my app.
I have my addUnitId : ca-app-pub-4493438885ds9958768/7749751738
Here my banner is not shown up within app.
Only error I am recieving is : The Google Play services resources were not found. Check your project configuration to ensure that the resources are included.
Even though I have configured with in app.
Can some one help me out what's I extra need to do ?
Thanks.
UPDATE
I am receiving ads after time lapse of 3-4 hours. Can't understand why this behavior occurs ??

Does your code request an Ad? If not then you won't get any ads.
And if you are requesting ads, then you will see evidence of that in the logs as well as the result of the request. Look at your log.
Note also that android:layout_alignParentBottom is not valid for a View within a LinearLayout

Add this in your code:
AdView adView = (AdView) view.findViewById(R.id.adView);
AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest.Builder()
.addTestDevice(AdRequest.DEVICE_ID_EMULATOR)
.build();
adView.loadAd(adRequest);

ADMOB - The following classes could not be instantiated: - com.google.android.gms.ads.AdView

I updated my old admob to the new admob. I downloaded SDK, imported google play service library and done everything in google documantation. But when I add the xml code:
<com.google.android.gms.ads.AdView android:id="#+id/adView"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
ads:adUnitId="ca-app-pub-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/YYYYYYYY"
ads:adSize="BANNER"/>
I get the following message in error log:

Coul you help me please?

You can create AdView in java code, but not in xml.
it works for me:
private AdView adView;
private static final String AD_UNIT_ID = "XXXXXXX";
#Override
public void onCreate(){
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
// Create an ad.
adView = new AdView(this);
adView.setAdSize(AdSize.BANNER);
adView.setAdUnitId(AD_UNIT_ID);
// Add the AdView to the view hierarchy. The view will have no size
// until the ad is loaded.
LinearLayout layout = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.linearLayout);
layout.addView(adView);
// Create an ad request. Check logcat output for the hashed device ID to
// get test ads on a physical device.
AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest.Builder()
.addTestDevice(AdRequest.DEVICE_ID_EMULATOR)
.addTestDevice("INSERT_YOUR_HASHED_DEVICE_ID_HERE")
.build();
// Start loading the ad in the background.
adView.loadAd(adRequest);
}
#Override
public void onResume() {
super.onResume();
if (adView != null) {
adView.resume();
}
}
#Override
public void onPause() {
if (adView != null) {
adView.pause();
}
super.onPause();
}
/** Called before the activity is destroyed. */
#Override
public void onDestroy() {
// Destroy the AdView.
if (adView != null) {
adView.destroy();
}
super.onDestroy();
}

Have you edited the proguard-project.txt? If not then open the proguard-project.txt file and put these lines there...
-keep public class com.google.android.gms.ads.** {
public *;
}
-keep public class com.google.ads.** {
public *;
}
Set target=android-13 or higher in your project.properties.

Admob Banner Ad not displaying in Android

Hi I have a Android game app developed using android cocos2d i need to integrate admob i have included the following code but banner ad is not displaying please help regarding this your answers will be appreciated and it would be a great help. thank you.
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
private CCGLSurfaceView mGLSurfaceView;
private boolean isCreated = false;
public static FrameLayout m_rootLayout;
AdView adView;
// This is used to display Toast messages and is not necessary for your app
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
if (!isCreated) {
isCreated = true;
} else {
return;
}
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT);
requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN,

AdRequest request = new AdRequest();
adView.loadAd(request);
// Adding full screen container
addContentView(adView, adParams);
}catch (Exception e) {
FlurryAgent.logEvent("ADMOB ERROR: "+e);

Please review all these additions in your project.
In Java class:
AdView layout = (AdView)this.findViewById(R.id.adView);
AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest();
//adRequest.setTesting(true);
layout.loadAd(adRequest);
In Layout:
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
xmlns:ads="http://schemas.android.com/apk/lib/com.google.ads">
<com.google.ads.AdView
android:id="#+id/adView"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
ads:adSize="BANNER"
ads:adUnitId="your key" />
</LinearLayout>
In Manifest:
<activity android:name="com.google.ads.AdActivity"
android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|orientation" />
I have worked with AdMob Lib. Ver. 4.0.4 which worked fine in my case.

Try this code
LinearLayout.LayoutParams adParams = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(
getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getWidth(),
getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getHeight()+getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getHeight()-50);
AdView ad = new AdView(this, AdSize.BANNER, "admob_id");
adParams.addView(ad);
AdRequest r = new AdRequest();
//r.setTesting(true);
ad.loadAd(r);

Make sure that you included correct ID and have correspond permissions for your app.
In addition it would be good to implement ADListener that really displays what how its going with ads rendering.
Also don't forget to set test mode to query ads, AdMob guys can just ban you for irresponsible clicks.

for latest Ads in Android
use below code
AdView layout = (AdView) this.findViewById(R.id.adView);
AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest.Builder()
.build();
//adRequest.setTesting(true);
layout.loadAd(adRequest);
beacuse AdRequest class final class so we can not create object.

Admob code not working

The following code is what I implemented just to check admob ads retrieval but I couldn't get any ads although the code is even no crashing.
Please inform what is wrong in this code.
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
public AdView admobView;
public View mainView;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
admobView = new AdView(this, AdSize.BANNER, "Top secret");
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams lp = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
lp.addRule(RelativeLayout.ALIGN_PARENT_BOTTOM);
admobView.setLayoutParams(lp);
//mainView.setLayoutParams(lp);
RelativeLayout layout = new RelativeLayout(this);
AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest();
//tested this
adRequest.addTestDevice(AdRequest.TEST_EMULATOR); // Emulator
//tested this
//adRequest.addTestDevice("20cb18e8ffc74ad2");
//tested this
//adRequest.addMediationExtra("3d879f364d5747c5", null);
admobView.loadAd(adRequest);
layout.addView(admobView);
//layout.addView(mainView);
setContentView(layout);
}

Did you add permissions and congifchanges of admob in your menifest. Cause i have run your code and it displayed in my emulator. And also in order to display add your app's targetSdkVersion need to be greater then 14.
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE"/>
<activity android:name="com.google.ads.AdActivity"
android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|orientation|screenLayout|uiMode|screenSize|smallestScreenSize" >
</activity>
Activity is as like you
public AdView admobView;
public View mainView;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
admobView = new AdView(this, AdSize.BANNER, "a14f39f0b52dce6");
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams lp = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
lp.addRule(RelativeLayout.ALIGN_PARENT_BOTTOM);
admobView.setLayoutParams(lp);
//mainView.setLayoutParams(lp);
RelativeLayout layout = new RelativeLayout(this);
AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest();
//tested this
adRequest.addTestDevice(AdRequest.TEST_EMULATOR); // Emulator
//tested this
//adRequest.addTestDevice("20cb18e8ffc74ad2");
//tested this
//adRequest.addMediationExtra("3d879f364d5747c5", null);
admobView.loadAd(adRequest);
layout.addView(admobView);
//layout.addView(mainView);
setContentView(layout);
}
