Hi!

After fixing many things today regarding SDKManager, missing libs, DEX issues and so on ....
now I am faced with the follwing, new issue:

I can compile my app without any problems - so far so good,
but while runtime while trying to show my activiy with my normal AdBanner ...

B4X:
Private BannerAd As AdView

... I get every time this exception:

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: No virtual method addTestDevice(Ljava/lang/StringLcom/google/android/gms/ads/AdRequest$Builder; in class Lcom/google/android/gms/ads/AdRequest$Builder; or its super classes (declaration of 'com.google.android.gms.ads.AdRequest$Builder' appears in /data/app/de.padlockblue.manager-rlxyQEL7PreeBAQXnaDgBg==/base.apk)

So, I guess there was a replacement of a lib or something like this.
Any idea, what to do in such a case?

I am using this in order to see real AD BANNERS - provided from google - but not to pay with it - because the TESTDEVICE ID is given and inserted in this method as a parameter from B4A log.

Using admob 2:



Using method: LoadWithTestDevice (with my own device ID):

Within the unfiltered log I found this - before the exception above:

This is again a DEXER issue, I guess, which could trigger the addTestDevice issue perhaps.

Any idea?

When I use this normal method from admob ...

B4X:
BannerAd.LoadAd

... then I get this runtime error:

... 20 more


Also based on the dexer issue, I guess.

Oh man, whats going up here?!

It works!

This was my mistake: I thought this lib would be FirebaseAdMob2:



But, you are right:
The real FirebaseAdmob2 jar file and its XML file were still missing.

You saved again the world for me, Erel.
Simply I only can say: Thank you!

Best regards
