No, since one is an application id, and the other is an ad unit id.

By setting the AdUnitId property of those you have ids for. You set these up in the AdMob web interface

.The most likely cause is that you need to configure GDPR and IDFA messages, here.

I still have an error. Consent error from: ConsentInfoUpdate - 3: Publisher misconfiguration: Failed to read publisher's account configuration; no form(s) configured for the input app ID. Verify that you have configured one or more forms for this application and try again. Received app ID: `ca-app-pub-3285XXXXXX~XXXXX"

 

I've changed

       <meta-data
                android:name="com.google.android.gms.ads.APPLICATION_ID"
                android:value="ca-app-pub-3285XXXXXX~96437XXXXX" />
        <service
            android:name="com.google.android.gms.metadata.ModuleDependencies"
            android:enabled="false"
            android:exported="false"

 

In unit1.pas add

AdMobBannerAd1.AdUnitID:='ca-app-pub-3285XXXXXX/21205XXXXX'

 

advertising format identifier - banner .

Is there anything else that needs to be changed for the test application?

Have you configured the GDPR and IDFA messages?

Not in the application itself. See above.

I have added GDPR messages. I don't use IDFA. No, I’m writing applications for the iPhone. Now the test application does not display any messages at all. It closes when you press the button. But when I press other buttons, nothing happens.

I assume by "close" you mean it crashes? At this point I can only suggest adding logging to the app to see exactly where it is failing.

I sent the log in a private message. and I also wanted to ask... is it possible to show ads with this component without enabling GDPR and IDFA, or does the component only work when GDPR and IDFA are enabled? For example, countries where this does not apply. This is necessary for an application that is intended for only one country, for example.

Not sure why this was not happening before. I see from your first post about this you are using an emulator? I strongly advise to use a real device. If you are unable to, make sure the emulator system image includes "Play Store":

Is this using the demo, unaltered, following all of the instructions? In which version of Delphi?

Maybe you can post an apk application with your built-in advertising (of all types) so that I can install it and see how advertising will work. This may not work due to sanctions and restrictions in some countries. Although it doesn’t work with VPN either.

yes I only use a real phone. samsung a31 (android 12). If it doesn’t start with your data, then there’s no point in looking for an error in the code. But why does my application close, but yours starts and does not close itself? have you added error and exception handling?

No - it is built direct from the demo app, with no alterations, using Delphi 12.1

Hi,

I Have some problems with this demo. I am using Nokia 2.2 with Android 11 and Delphi 12.2. I have tested the demo in 32 and 64 bit but app crash in DW.AdMob.Android.pas on line 263. This line is : TJMobileAds.JavaClass.initialize(TAndroidHelper.Context);

 

I have a breakpoint before and after this line. No consent is shown.

 

Can you help me?

Thanks.

 

P.s. I read all the posts carefully.

Is there an error message? If not, please use a log viewer to check if the system is generating any error messages.

[Manuel S. 0]

Hi,

I have used DeviceLens and I have find this message when is executed TJMobileAds.JavaClass.initialize(TAndroidHelper.Context);

"The Google Play services resources were not found. Check your project configuration to ensure that the resources are included."

 

1) I have deleted ADTestD12.R.jar from my project because library play-services-base:18.1.0.jar already exists and I think it needs only for Delphi 11.3.

Is correct?

2) However I did a test by creating this file and got an error during deployment on the manifest file. You can see the attached images.
Do you have any advice?

3) If I delete from device the app, consent is shown only first time but app crash when I click on consent.

4) I have added logcat.log with all log before crash.

No, it is not correct. The file should not be deleted as it contains code necessary for the application to work.

The error is occurring because you removed ADTestD12.R.jar from the project.

It seems you did not carefully read the instructions from the demo.

[Manuel S. 0]

Hi,

As demonstrated by the images in my previous post which I am reporting now, I did a test by creating the ADTestD12.R.jar file but I had a problem compiling the Android.Manifest.xml file as demonstrated by the images below.

 

I have modified file play-services-base18.1.0-Manifest.merge.xml and project runs very well.

Sorry.
