Long time to load banner

godrar

Hi!
I migrate from the old jar to new Google Play lib Admob plugin. My problem is long time to load banner - 60s or more. On old libraries banners load very quickly (few seconds). What is wrong? Please help.

I also migrated to the Google Play library and the same happens to me. I even have to wait for interstitials making them disappear before even showing up. However, I was a bit relieved when a friend of mine sent me a video he recorded of my game. For him the ads showed okay. Still I don't know what's the problem, though.

Hi Disciple!

I have no problem with interstitials.
Can you share AdMob.java code? I want to compare the code.

Disciple

Sure, I read yours too; didn't compare them, though.

Files are similar

Disciple

Yeah, pretty much the same I guess Have you tried how your ads load on another device?

Do you think it is a difference between devices?
Or maybe a difference between debug/test enabled version and release/production version?

Because I could only guess, but on debug/test version, ads are maybe not preloaded and cached, cause that would make sense for testing purposes

On my three devices is the same.
I found this link:

and I solved the problem:

adView.setAdListener(new AdListener() { <a href="https://forum.giderosmobile.com/profile/Override" rel="nofollow">@Override</a> public void onAdLoaded() { adView.setBackgroundColor(Color.TRANSPARENT); } });

I tried that out and worked perfectly. Thanks for sharing!
