I'm new to admob and adding ads to my applications. I have added the google play services sdk to my project(app) and added a add view to the the layout of my app. Everything is set up properly and the test ads show up when debugging the app on my android device. I wanted to know if I didnt launch/publish the app to google play but people still downloaded the apk... Will i still be able to make money from the in app ads when the users click on the ads and does admob pay for the views for a ads?
Admob ad got a yellow triangle next to it saying linking to market so I'm a little confused on if I have to link to the market to make the ads work.
Yes it doesn't matter if it's on the market or not. You don't have to link the yellow triangle to your app it just makes the icon and name for it.
Im using admob and i released my apps on playstore and samsung market. I even have some apps that only available on samsung market, so far i never had any issue from the earning. So yes, the ads will still appears regardless of what market you put your apps into

When I export my app into a .APK file and I install it on my Android phone, the ads work fine and appear. However, after I published my app in Google Play and reinstalled it, the ads don't show up.
What could be the reason!?
My ads' Ids are created for a few weeks, they are not new Ids.
I had the same problem, but in the ended up working on some phones, but not on others. One problem that you might have is that the device you tested doesnt have access to internet, so the ads cant be loaded. One other problem might be that there are simply not enough ads to be shown by google admob, so you dont display anything.
I have built a Corona SDK app that I want to contains ads (using an Admob).
I have 2 apps: one that I already published to the Google play and what I needed now is to republish it with an ad banner. And a second app that I haven't published at all.
When I tried to insert banner to my app that I already published it's shows the banner properly but when I tried to add the SAME impletation to the app I haven't published yet I received constantly "error code 3".
So, my question is: Is admob require that the app will be published in the "Google Play" store to be able to get ads?
Thank all.
Are you setting the ads to use testMode? If your app isn't published yet, you should not be getting live ads. But if you haven't published yet, you're not allowed to show live ads.

I have an Android application that use Admob to display ads. When I tested the application on my mobile phone before publishing it to the play store every thing was perfect and ads appear normally.
After publishing the app to the play store and download the live version the application doesn't show any ads.
How can I fix the problem ?
This is not your problem. It's a global problem but Google don't say anything about it.

What if I don't want to have banner ads in my android application, but still want to provide links to other apps in the play store (as part of my app content). However it should act like how the same app came as a banner ad to enable monetization of my content.
Does Google Android SDK provide a way to get the registered associate/referrer ID for any app in the play store, that I can use while showing that app for download in my application? Eg. If I enable banner ads, Google owns the content of it and shows relevant ads (including ads to download and install another mobile app). Instead I want to enable download and install of other mobile apps in my android application, but at the same time earn money for those app downloads/installs. Is it possible?
If you want to show ads for your other apps in short, Cross Promote apps, that feature is available in AdMob. Here you won't be paid for showing your ad. because your other app is getting promoted for free.
The other thing you are saying is that you want some app ads to be shown in your app. Well, firstly they should be paying or else how will you earn money. So you got to agree with them.
But there is DFP (DoubleClick for Publishers) for similar purpose AFAIK. You can see which ads to show or not. Only if the advertisers is available in that list from which you can select ads to show.
Is their an0 android app ads library that I can use in my app without the need to publish the app in the market?
You don't need to publish your application on the Market in order to use AdMob ads. Just register on the AdMob site and get your code to use when displaying ads.
I don't see any relevance between being small company and using Android Market, about 80% or more of Android Market submissions are made by singe developers, there's absolutely nothing wrong about publishing your personal application. I can even tell, it's really helpful to get a feedback from market users, especially if you don't have many people to beta-test your application.
