Callback is not obtained at onAdLoaded - android

Iam trying to display ad using Admob,but Iam not getting any call at onAdloaded.Can someone help...
Iam displaying an inerstitial ad.Iam setting and then Iam trying to load it...
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle arg0) {
super.onCreate(arg0);
CalligraphyConfig.initDefault(getString(R.string.font_alegreya_sans_regular));
setInterstitialAd();
setContentView(R.layout.splashscreen_activity);
}
private void setInterstitialAd() {
mInterstitial = new InterstitialAd(this);
mInterstitial.setAdUnitId(INTERSTITIAL_AD_ID);
// Create ad request.
AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest.Builder().build();
// Begin loading your interstitial.
mInterstitial.loadAd(adRequest);
mInterstitial.setAdListener(new AdListener() {
#Override
public void onAdLoaded() {
displayInterstitial();
}
#Override
public void onAdFailedToLoad(int errorCode) {
}
});
}
private void initAdView() {
AdView mAdView = (AdView) findViewById(R.id.ad_container_layout);
AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest.Builder().build();
mAdView.loadAd(adRequest);
}

You should'nt have displayInterstitial() inside onAdLoaded(). This is causing the outcome of Ad not being shown. Either show an Ad after some level or user made action like after five level, one is displaying an interstitial, it comes in the pause menu. you keep it loaded from before and display it on the fifth level. or you can have it in that pause menu after some amount of time using a timer ( in which displayInterstitial() ) is included.

Suraj, add some log into both callback methods. One of them will be called.
I suspect the ad request is failing for reason, so onFailedToLoad() will be getting called instead.
Also DON'T call displayInterstitial() from onAdLoaded(). This causes really poor user experience and is likely to get your Admob account banned.

Admob Ad's during Development

My doubt is not weather its ok to click on live ads during development.I did all the formalities to get my admob ad working . Then i saw that we should only use test add during development . so i used this code:
AdRequest request = new AdRequest.Builder()
.addTestDevice(AdRequest.DEVICE_ID_EMULATOR) // All emulators
.addTestDevice("AC98C820A50B4AD8A2106EDE96FB87D4") // An example device ID
.build();
It worked fine. But then i change i back to the live ad code fearing that i would forget to do so later:
AdView mAdView = (AdView) findViewById(R.id.adView);
AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest.Builder().build();
mAdView.loadAd(adRequest);
But now the ad wont appear during test run. Is that normal?
will the ad work when i finally launch the app?
I dont see anything wrong with your code, but something similar happened to me when implementing admob too.
I didnt have in count that the ad must be loaded before showing it, and that the loading may take some time. If you try to show an ad that its not loaded, a black activity might be shown.
You should implement some waiting time or a listener in order to be sure that the add is loaded before showing it.
public InterstitialAd interstitialAd;
[...]
public void setNewInterstitialRequest()
{
interstitialAd = new InterstitialAd(CurrActivity.this);
interstitialAd.setAdUnitId("ca-app-pub-***************************");
AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest.Builder()
//.addTestDevice("ZY22247DJV")
.build();
// Begin loading your interstitial.
interstitialAd.loadAd(adRequest);
//add listener so you know is fully loaded
interstitialAd.setAdListener(new AdListener() {
#Override
public void onAdLoaded() {
[...] // <- code you want to execute as soon as the ad is loaded
}
});
}
public void displayAd() {
try {
//verify is loaded before showing a black screen
if (interstitialAd.isLoaded()) {
interstitialAd.show();
}
//else
// showToast("Not loaded");
}
catch (Exception ex){}
}
So taking this in mind, if you want for the ad to be shown inmediately when something happens, you should have it loaded before that event occurs.

Interstitial ADS Closing

I need some help the problem is that when Interstitial ads open and when it closes it unloads the loaded ad from the variable I am using for displaying Interstitial ADS , my question is can I stop it from unloading the ads ? If yes then how can I do it?
This is normal.
Same add can be displayed only once. After it is closed, you must request a new one. You can use same InterstitialAd object to request a new AD. However, you really must load a new one.
You can create an AdListener and check when the add is closed. This way, you can request a new one.
In AdMob's DOC page, you can find some examples:
public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity {
InterstitialAd mInterstitialAd;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
mInterstitialAd = new InterstitialAd(this);
mInterstitialAd.setAdUnitId("AD UNIT ID");
mInterstitialAd.setAdListener(new AdListener() {
#Override
public void onAdClosed() {
requestNewInterstitial();
}
});
requestNewInterstitial();
}
private void requestNewInterstitial() {
AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest.Builder()
.addTestDevice("SEE_YOUR_LOGCAT_TO_GET_YOUR_DEVICE_ID")
.build();
mInterstitialAd.loadAd(adRequest);
}
}

Is it possible to load ads of Admob in starting of app?

Is it possible to load ads of Ad mob in starting of app and then use it in any button of whole project?
After click of any button it open quickly on every type of internet mainly on 2g
without taking time to load
it not a recommended way to show ads at start of the application as it result in poor user experience, like user might be interacting with your app and suddenly Ad pops up.
well if you still want to you can display it by overriding onAdLoad listener in your Activity's onCreate
mInterstitialAd = new InterstitialAd(this);
mInterstitialAd.setAdUnitId(getString(R.string.interstitialAd_id));
AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest.Builder().build();
mInterstitialAd.loadAd(adRequest);
mInterstitialAd.setAdListener(new AdListener() {
#Override
public void onAdLoaded() {
if (mInterstitialAd.isLoaded()) {
mInterstitialAd.show();
}
}
});
UPDATE:
With this method it will only display it if its loaded
if (mInterstitialAd.isLoaded()) {
mInterstitialAd.show();
}

Android Publisher Interstitial Ad displaying after close

My application opens a Publisher InterstitialAd whenever you start but when a user closes it reopens. This process happens constantly and then you can't use application, can anyone help me?
public void getIntertitalAds(boolean isPortraitMode)
{
interstitial = new PublisherInterstitialAd(context);
if(isPortraitMode)
interstitial.setAdUnitId(tags.getAdUnitInterstitial());
else
interstitial.setAdUnitId(tags.getAdUnitInterstitialTablet());
AdListener adListener = new AdListener() {
#Override
public void onAdLoaded() {
super.onAdLoaded();
if(interstitial!=null)
interstitial.show();
}
#Override
public void onAdClosed() {
super.onAdClosed();
interstitial = null;
}
};
// Create ad request.
PublisherAdRequest adRequest = new PublisherAdRequest.Builder()
.build();
// Begin loading your interstitial.
interstitial.setAdListener(adListener);
interstitial.loadAd(adRequest);
}
NEVER call interstitial.show() from AdListener#onAdLoaded(). You have no control over when it will be called and it presents a really poor user experience. Instead call interstitial.show() at a natural break point in your app.
There is no need to have separate AdUnitIds for portrait and landscape. Interstitials are the same regardless.
All the code in your getIntertitalAds() (sic) method should be Activity#onCreate
I strongly suspect your problems stem from a combination of 1 and 3.

Admob interstitial on app start

i want to have an admob interstitial ad show up when the user first opens the app or when the user navigates to another app (like browser) and then returns to my app. This is my current code for interstital ad, this code is entirely contained inside the OnCreate method.
// Create the interstitial.
interstitial = new InterstitialAd(this);
interstitial.setAdUnitId("ca-app-pub-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX");
// Create ad request.
AdRequest adRequest2 = new AdRequest.Builder().build();
// Begin loading your interstitial.
interstitial.loadAd(adRequest2);
interstitial.setAdListener(new AdListener() {
#Override
public void onAdLoaded() {
if (interstitial.isLoaded()) {
interstitial.show();
}
}
});
This seems to work for most situations, but on certain devices this will create a loop of interstitial showing 2-3 sec after they are dismissed by the user. one of those device that has the loop is a Galaxy Tab3 . i cant seem to figure out a proper way to setup my code so that this behavior does not happen on any device.
Use the following code to display the interstitial ad when appstarts.
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
interstitial = new InterstitialAd(this);
interstitial.setAdUnitId("***********");
AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest.Builder().build();
interstitial.loadAd(adRequest);
interstitial.setAdListener(new AdListener() {
public void onAdLoaded() {
displayInterstitial();
}
});
}
public void displayInterstitial() {
if (interstitial.isLoaded()) {
interstitial.show();
}
}
Create a boolean var to assist with it..
boolean ad_shown = false;
When you do .show() turn the variable to true.
Don't forget to put a guard on the if
if (interstitial.isLoaded() && !ad_shown) {
