Android Question [SOLVED] - Ads not working on Samsung with Android 9

[Geezer]

OK. So several months ago I was playing around and got the test ads to show, but when I tried to use my ads they wouldn't show.

I got busy and left it alone.

Now. When i try again, following whatever I can find in the forums, I can't even get the test ads to show.

Attached is what I think is the code required to show the test ads. If someone can take a look at point out what I missed I'll take another look when I get a chance.

Thanks in advance.

Hi
Which version of B4A do you use?

First step is to implement the FailedToReceiveAd and check the error.

I'm running 9.30 and both ads return error code 0

 

[Geezer]

OK. So... the same code runs and retrieves ads on the memu emulator, running android 5 and the AVD emulator running android 9

But not on on my Samsungs S10+ running android 9.

Any ideas ?

After one of the updates, an option appeared in my settings.

Under Google is an option for Ads, and under that is an option to Enable debug logging for ads. This was turned on by default and it's the culprit. Turning that off fixes the issue of me not being able to serve ads on this phone.
