I am new to programming in Java and Android. I got admob to work at the most basic level, and whenever the device is at the landscape orientation, admob tends to popup and occupy a huge potion of the screen.What is the best way to detect the orientation and hide the ads from displaying if it is in horizontal orientation? Is it necessary to put the admob application in a thread to check for change in orientation and hide/unhide it?
Is there any widget which would help me to create kind of admob banner or scrolling text at the top of my app?

View 2 Replies View RelatedFor a widget I am creating for the Android OS, I want the user to first select a certain option from a Spinner. Just like when you add a shortcut to the homescreen.
Is that possible or do you have to start an Activity? If it is possible, can anyone explain how to do it?
My app has a 1*4 icon size widget. When a user tries to add a widget I provide with a configuration screen. and some data is collected - it is verified by the server - it is added to the local DB with appWidgetID as the key - all is good. when user hits save, if there is not enough space, he is given a polite toast - "No more room on this home screen". Now my problem is that the application is not informed of this. Application still assumes the widget was created and sits back and wait for the broadcast to update the widget after certain amount of time.
Can anyone tell me if i can find out via a broadcast or a call back or any method possible to determine if the widget was not successfully created, so that i can mark that record in my DB as deleted. Or better if i can know the space available beforehand via some magic ninja code. my whole application design is disturbed because of this problem.

why i get these errors,but it happends right when i add the widget, i believe i might have something to do with the settings activity,it used to work, but then suddenly stops working...
I have a widget that displays a set of information. What I would like to do is to give the user the opportunity to choose the background color/image. I would like to have a popup when the user is selecting the widget to choose the background. So how would I make the popup? And how would I apply the background dynamically?

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy app displays an AdMob AdView followed by a ListView. When the app first starts, I'd see an empty space where the AdView should be. After a while, I'd see an ad being displayed. However, this where the strange happens.The ad only displays for a brief moment, no more than a second, then it goes away and becomes empty space again (no ad). So it just repeats like this: no ads for while, brief display of ad, no ads again for while, and so on.This is my first experience with AdMob and I followed the AdMob integration instructions pretty closely.Am I doing something wrong? Or is there some kind of param to set the during of an ad being display that I am missing?

I have already posted on their developer group but based on everything I've seen I don't expect a reply. I have a strange problem. When I added and adview to my app it imported a bunch of comments that all start with /** Eclipse is acting like it is not a comment. Although it isn't erroring out it has now marked anything starting with R.id as not existing. Is this something I can remedy in eclipse or is it time to chuck my dreams of being mega rich off of all the admob revenue I will be receiving?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm adding AdMob ads (say that five times fast) to my finished, published Android app. I added the code from the PDF included with AdMob, following their instructions to a tee. The test ads show up fine on my emulators and specified test devices. They just don't appear in the published marketplace app when you download and run it. I still get impressions on my AdMob page however. Any ideas?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI want to use Admob in my app. I've downloaded the SDK and followed the steps. Sometimes, I get an ad in return, but most of the time, I get an entry in LogCat that says "Server did not find any ads" or something to that effect. Test mode is enabled, says the Admob site. I think I might be doing something wrong. Where can I get a step-by-step guide to insert admob ads in Android apps? The Admob developer site is rather lacking.
Also, let's assume that everything's gone well and that I'd now like to deploy the app. How do I turn off test mode for Admob ads?
I am trying to get AdMob ads to display in my android application and have been unable to do so. I have contacted their support and have not received any response in almost a week, so I figured I would now ask for help here.
First some code:
CODE:................
Yes, admob-publisher-id-here is my real publisher id in the actual manifest file.
In the logcat, i see the following:
CODE:..................
The AdListener is indicating that it is unable to retrieve the ad. I have an active data connection, plus I am in Test Mode, so it is supposed to always show an ad, according to the admob wiki. There are no errors in the logcat, nor is the application force closing at all.
I got a response from admob, but all they said was i was creating the aeveiw twice, which I am not
I am developing an application in which I have used AdMob. When I run the application on emulator the it runs proper i.e. I get ads near about 8 times out of 10 requests. But when I run it through handset, the response get decremented i.e. I get near about 1 to 2 ads out of 10 to 20 requests.

When integrating AdMob ads into your application it is recommended to use test mode. In test mode test, ads are always returned. Test mode is enabled on a per-device basis. To enable test mode for a device, first request an ad, then look in LogCat for a line like the following:
To get test ads on the emulator use AdManager.setTestDevices...Once you have the device ID you can enable test mode by calling AdManager.setTestDevices:

I got accepted into Adsense for Mobile yesterday. Right now my app is running with Admob and generating about $6+ a day with 70k impressions (CTR ranges from 0.2% to 0.3%) . Just wondering if someone has experience with both Admob and Adsense, if so would you suggest changing to Adsense?

Also, does AdMob or Google AdSense generate more money?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm very new to Android (like 2 days), but I'm experienced with other layout toolkits. I'm trying to put an AdView below a TabHost, and it seems that I can either get the TabWidget or the AdView to display correctly, but never both.
First, here's an ASCII art version of what I'm trying to accomplish:
--------------------------------------------
| Tab 1 | Tab 2 |
--------------------------------------------
| MapView when tab 1 is selected |
| |
| |
| |
| |
| |
| |
--------------------------------------------
| AdView that stays no matter what tab |
--------------------------------------------
As you can see, I'm trying to get the AdView outside the TabWidget or FrameLayout. I want it to be below the whole tabhost contents.
Here's the layout I've got before adding the AdView...
Unfortunately, in that one, my MapView in the first tab puts the Zoom controls on top of the AdView. Is there some simple layout I'm missing? Cuz I can get the TabWidget to wrap_content for height, or the AdView to wrap_content for height, but only when they go above the "@android:id/tabcontent."
Anything below the tab content gets eaten by the MapView.
I have an app with Admob ads on it but I find that when I use it the ad almost never refreshes because I don't change activities, instead I just update a text view when buttons are pressed. I have tried searching this on Google but keep comming up short.
I would like to tell the app to refresh the add occasionally, such as after two button clicks or something like that. Does anyone know how to do this and potentially have some sample code for it?
