ios8 Admob in iOS ads not displayed on the screen

yubaro · October 2014

Hi folks, I finally got myself a mac and I'm newbie in this.

I'm trying to operate Ads Interface for IOS, I'm testing in the simulator.

It works perfect in the simulator with ios 7.1, setAlignment in center and bottom(Admob and Iad)

With ios8 not working properly, not displayed on the screen(Admob and Iad)

Any way to fix this?Has anyone been able to make it work properly?

And with Chartboost and Heyzap this error:

Thanks @ar2rsawseen, now I'll try to solve.

Any solution to Admob and Iad with IOS8?

ar2rsawseen · October 2014

With ios8 there are height and width mixed up and your ads are going out of bounds, thus they are not displayed.

Unfortunately I don't have ios8 device so can't really test it

yubaro · October 2014

Hi @ar2rsawseen , I'm testing in the simulator xcode and not on a real device. In mac, the simulator works like the real device? I'm newbie in this.Thanks!

ar2rsawseen · October 2014

Yes they should work quite similarly to device, as in same problem with orientation

yubaro · October 2014

@ar2rsawseen, thanks for your answers. I can not find how to solve it. Mac is new to me. :-B Tell us please if you find a solution to ios8.

ar2rsawseen · October 2014

That's the problem, I don't have one, cause I'm not updated to new xcode, cause my IOS license expired and I don't have anything to do with IOS anymore (as in I'm not publishing my apps on IOS market), sorry

yubaro · October 2014

I have no IOS license, everything I try on the simulator for now. Any way to go?

jdbc · October 2014

Try to remove AdsCharboost.h file and add it again but mark "Copy if needed"

yubaro · October 2014

thanks @jdbc, I will try this weekend...any ideas for iad and admob in ios8?

jdbc · October 2014

Sorry I do not have Xcode 6 installed.

yubaro · October 2014

What have xcode installed? Do you work all right with your version of xcode installed, ios8 too?

jdbc · October 2014

I use Xcode 5, but my last Air Soccer game was approved recently on Apple Store. I suppose it works for iOS8 but I have built for iOS 6 as target.

If you have an iPhone or iPad with iOS 8, you could try it, I do not have one:

yubaro · October 2014

Sure, weekend a friend lend me a mini ipad with iOS8, on monday I'll tell you how it goes ... have ads? Iad?Admob?Other?

jdbc · October 2014

This game has iAd banner and interstitials integrated, but I am having a 37% of fill rate so it works on some iOS device (I do not know with iOS 8) but not always showing ads. This is because of I will use another advertise network different when iAd is not available.

It could be that the problem with fill rate is that iOS devices are not using iOS 8, I do not know.

yubaro · October 2014

On Monday I'll tell you how iAds work on your game with iOS8, please wait.

SimplesApps · November 2014

@yubaro Please, could you also test my game ("Action Basket") using iOS 8 ?

I've also some strange % of fill rates.

Many thanks.

yubaro · November 2014

@jdbc :
- Ad banner : no displayed
- Ad interstitials: no displayed

Here some pictures:

yubaro · November 2014

@SimplesApps :
- Ad banner : displayed
- Ad interstitials: displayed

What networks do you use? How did you do to solve the problem with IOS8?

Here some pictures:

SimplesApps · November 2014

Thanks @yubaro

Do you enjoy my game? What things you find out could be improved?

I use iAd/AdMob for ad banners and Chartboost for ad interstitials.

I didn't nothing special to solve the problem you say with iOS 8.
Maybe it's a problem of versions… I tell you the versions I've used:
XCode 5.1.1, target iOS 7.1

I suppose you read this forum thread:
http://giderosmobile.com/forum/discussion/3456/ads-interface/p8

I mean you can see there are many issues for the Ads.

Btw, what is the "com.surprise.pluginSdk" you mentioned in the discussion?

yubaro · November 2014

@SimplesApps

Sure, I like it. Not finished playing, but maybe add some more difficulty, there all good.

I'll try with Xcode 5.1.1. How you alternate between iAd/Admob banners?

You mean target iOS 7.1 SDK or a deployment target 7.1 (options 4.3, 5.0, 5.1, 6.0, 6.1, 7.0, 7.1)?

The error mentioned above happens with Xcode6 and the iOS8 simulator.

SurpriseSdk is the sdk of Letang, we had a game with them.

SimplesApps · November 2014

@yubaro

I change one ad with the other if the first fails (after some tries).

I mean iOS 7.1 SDK and deployment target 5.0.

jdbc · November 2014

I have only iAd advertise and I also use iOS 7.1 SDK and deployment target 5.0

The screenshots of Action Basket seems to show only Chartboost Ads. I will change all iAds for a different Ads network in all my games when iAd does not work.

May be it is only a filling problem too.

yubaro · November 2014

@jdbc, Action Basket also shows banner, see image 2 and 4 at bottom. In Action Basket show admob, it seems.

In Air Soccer I played several minutes and nothing.

SimplesApps · November 2014

@jdbc @yubaro

Yes, I use Admob/iAd banner at the bottom of the playing screen (first iAd, if it fails then I show Admob). As you see the banner it's not intrusive.

jdbc · November 2014

@jdbc, Action Basket also shows banner, see image 2 and 4 at bottom. In Action Basket show admob, it seems.

In Air Soccer I played several minutes and nothing.

Then it seems a problem with low fill rate with iOS 8 and Xcode 5.1.1
The solution is to use two ads networks always.

yubaro · November 2014

@ar2rsawseen @jdbc I tried everything recommended but I can not fix it.

I tried this:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20065666/lexical-or-preprocessor-issue-facebooksdk-facebooksdk-h-file-not-found
And remove AdsCharboost.h file and add it again but mark "Copy if needed"
And nothing, any help?
Now I'm with Xcode 5.1.1

ar2rsawseen · November 2014

@yubaro really don't know what suggest more. The error is not specific, and can be caused in multiple cases.
You reference library or framework that does not exist, or framework is damaged, etc.

If the same error happens even on empty project adding plugins from the start, then most probably framework is damaged and you should try downloading it from chartboost website:

yubaro · November 2014

Thanks @ar2rsawseen, you're awesome. That was the problem, I replaced the file downloaded from the link and it worked perfect. Thanks again!

yubaro · December 2014

I have the same problem but now with vungle.
@ar2rsawseen, do you have a link to download vungle sdk? Which version do you use? Current version is 3.0.11
