Apps Problem using AdMod

Pabrick · Sep 13, 2011

Hi,

i'm having problems with the adMob ads, I don't know what else have to do.

My app showme the ads in the emulator, but not in my mobile.

What am I doing wrong?

This is the code of my activity:

Code:

private AdView adView_cuchillas;
...
adView_cuchillas = (AdView) findViewById(R.id.anuncio);
adView_cuchillas.setVisibility(AdView.VISIBLE);
AdRequest request = new AdRequest();
adView_cuchillas.loadAd(request);

My Manifest:

Code:

<activity android:name="com.google.ads.AdActivity" android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|orientation">
<meta-data android:value="XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" android:name="ADMOB_PUBLISHER_ID" />
</activity>

My main:

Code:

<com.google.ads.AdView
android:id="@+id/anuncio"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
ads:adUnitId="XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
ads:adSize="BANNER"
ads:loadAdOnCreate="true"/>

Please help!

Thanks!

Check the logcat in DDM perspective and reply back what error you get,it should be in orange text.

This is what DDMS Logcat tells me while test in my phone:
In orange:

Code:

09-14 09:14:25.187: WARN/Ads(31290): loadAd called while the ad is already loading, so aborting.

In green:

Code:

09-14 09:14:25.727: INFO/Ads(31290): onFailedToReceiveAd(A network error occurred.)

What does that mean?

Okey the last post means that I didn't have the internet connected, but with the wi-fi connected it tells me this:

Orange (Warning):

Code:

09-14 09:31:26.368: WARN/Ads(31669): loadAd called while the ad is already loading, so aborting.

Green (Info):

Ooookey it's seems I finally solve that problem, but another has appeared!

Now I CAN see the ads.
But when I touch or click on them, my app closes.

Mi DDMS Logcat tells me this:
Red (Error):

Code:

09-14 09:41:42.658: ERROR/Ads(31921): Could not get currentAdManager.
09-14 09:41:42.658: ERROR/Ads(31921): Could not get currentAdManager.

Hmm there could be a number of reasons ,

Could you provide your updated code? Java and xml please

so make sure you dont call load ad twice,
By having loadadoncreate-true in your xml and having loadad(request) in your code.
Its better to chose the code option and remove the xml version so you can load as many times in different times whereas the xml version you can only have called once and thats when its created.

Alsi know that usually when it says onFailedToRecieved(), sometimes there are just no ads currently to load, but the more usrrs that use your app the less freaquent thwt issue becomes.

Also
.setVisibility, is that really needed?

Im guessing you have a attrs.xml ?
if not reply back and ill provide you an easier solution to adding ads

qasimValent · Sep 14, 2011

Check out this for a quick easy implementation.
Google AdMob Ads Android Fundamentals - Google AdMob Ads SDK - Google Code

Or this example that is very similar to your implementation.
Add Admob in Android Application | Android Flash Development Guide
(note: in this example you dont need .setGender unless you want to specifically target gender based ads and make sure you remove setTestin when testing is complete).

I hope that helps, sorry for any spelling mistakes, im helping you from my dellstreak lol

Thanks qasimValent

They are working now!

I have another problem now, but it's about the killing process of the app.
