[CS SI]

+1. Got the same crash in Firebase Crashlytics console. Any news?

Shall I add this to AndroidManifest.xml?

<uses-library android:name="org.apache.http.legacy" android:required="false" />

This seems to have solved it for me in AndroidManifest.xml:

Hello

There is the same problem with the library version: com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:16.0.0. Stacktrace below

compileSdkVersion 28
buildToolsVersion "28.0.3"
targetSdkVersion 28

It seems that the issue is ONLY for the Android 9 devices and for the projects targetting API 28.

So as discribed here https://developer.android.com/about/versions/pie/android-9.0-changes-28 it may mean that the library is using the old apache library that has been removed from Android 9.

Isn't it related to the bug: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/79478779 ? It was closed with the status "wont fix" and asking to add the tag proposed by Henrik:

https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android-sdk/config#specify_requirement_for_apache_http_legacy_library

Would it mean that all the AdMob apps targetting SDK28 HAVE TO include the tag that Henrik reported?

@Henrik: after adding the tag, have you experianced other errors from your users?

Best regards

Mac

Not related to this no. One user that got the crash all the time reports that it is now stable with regards to ads.

Now I got a different error which should not be related (just showing it here for the record):

(Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.XYZ/com.google.android.gms.ads.AdActivity}: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Only fullscreen activities can request orientation)

If it helps, using the workaround for Google Maps Platform works

[Vairavan Srinivasan]

With com.google.firebase:firebase-ads:17.1.1, it seems to be working fine.

Though, i'm not able to find the release notes.

[Vairavan Srinivasan]

It was working fine yesterday and now it has started to crash again in Pixel2 XL.

Is there some kind of dependency on play services?

[mobileadssdk-a...@google.com]

Th issue is not resolved yet. Our team is working on this and I'll update you via this thread if I have any new information about the issue.

[Peter Macias]

Got a same error in alpha testing. The phone is Pixel XL. ETA on the solution? and any other way around to fix this issue? 

[secco.1...@gmail.com]

Hi Peter

There is an 'unofficial' (not coming from Google) but working workaround of this issue

It was first described by Henrik, then by me and lastly by Vairavan, all in this thread

The trick is the same as for the google maps implementation on Android P. Just put the following tag in your manifest file:

<uses-library
      android:name="org.apache.http.legacy"
      android:required="false" />

In my apps, since the change at the beginning of October, the issue has never occurred again

So meanwhile Google is working on an official solution of the problem, you can use this workaround to solve it immediately on your side

Greetings

Mac

[Rasmus Vernhamn]

Hey @Henrik 

Did you solve the new error that you recieved? I've got both of em and would like to find a solution for the latter one. I found this thread: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/google-admob-ads-sdk/Yniv0UNCc74 which mentions your bug, but no solution. I got in contact with one user who had the error and I somewhere, someone mentioned adding this to AndroidManifest would solve a similar issue:

<activity

    android:name="com.google.android.gms.ads.AdActivity"

    android:theme="@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar.Fullscreen"

    tools:replace="android:theme"/>

I confirmed with him that he no longer recieves the crashes after adding this. Can you confirm as well? I have no clue why this would make any difference though.

[Pieter Mulder]

Has there been any progress on this?

Obviously I'll put the workaround in place to prevent the crashes, but we don't know what the unintended consequences of the workaround will be.  I would much prefer if Google could either fix the issue or publish this as a known workaround which will not impact anything else.

[mobileadssdk...@google.com]

Hi Pieter,

The team is still actively working on this. On the other hand, the workaround mentioned is actually suggested by the team as well, for the meantime, if you are targeting Android 9 devices.

That said, I will raise your concerns to the team and I'll keep you posted accordingly.

I'm experiencing a similar issue since a while with AdMob. No dynamite involved, but gsm stacktrace is obfuscated so I can't tell about that.

All crash reports come from Android 9 devices. I'm using both interstitials and standard banners.

I'm unable to reproduce this issue in emulators and I don't have Android 9 physical devices. Many users are complaining crashes at the opening of the app, so supposedly when MobileAds.initialize() is called.

Is the workaround working? It is safe to put it in the manifest without any collateral issues?

[mobileadssdk...@google.com]

Hello, 

This is a known issue and our team is looking into this. I will keep you posted on the updates.

someone suggests android manifest "com.google.android.gms.ads.AdActivity" is a problem, so change it to next. but it doesn't fix the issue.

This will help us debug the issue.

Hello,

I've been using admob for all of my games, and currently 15+ of my games reporting this issue regardless the type of device.

Here's a screenshot one of our crashlytics:

It's happened on 100% of Android 9, and in last 7 days, it has affected 34 of our users.

Currently, all of my game that's played online with admob sdk experienced crash. The game works fine if played offline.

So, I've been searching work around for this day by day, but unfortunately I haven't found any workaround in this.

I got lot's of type of the error, but all of them is coming from ac.loadClass:

Here's 2 of the logcat error, the difference is bold:

I've tried upgrading and downgrading admob sdk version, but still unable to solve this issue.

Does anyone have workaround on this or which SDK that should be used? Currently, I'm using this sdk version: com.google.firebase:firebase-ads:15.0.1

Thank you.

[secco.1...@gmail.com]

Hello

There is an 'unofficial' (not coming from Google) but working workaround of this issue

It was first described by Henrik, then by me and lastly by Vairavan, all in this thread (in September/October 2018)

The trick is the same as for the google maps implementation on Android P. Just put the following tag in your manifest file:

<uses-library
      android:name="org.apache.http.legacy"
      android:required="false" />

In my apps, since the change at the beginning of October, the issue has never occurred again

So meanwhile Google is working on an official solution of the problem, you can use this workaround to solve it immediately on your side

Greetings

Mac

Hello,

I've been using admob for all of my games, and currently 15+ of my games reporting this issue regardless the type of device.

Here's a screenshot one of our crashlytics:

It's happened on 100% of Android 9, and in last 7 days, it has affected 34 of our users.

Currently, all of my game that's played online with admob sdk experienced crash. The game works fine if played offline.

So, I've been searching work around for this day by day, but unfortunately I haven't found any workaround in this.

I got lot's of type of the error, but all of them is coming from ac.loadClass:

Hello,

Thank you for your quick reply.

I have tried your solution, and seems worked!

After some googling, I also found this link: https://developer.android.com/about/versions/pie/android-9.0-changes-28#apache-p

Since Android-9, google by default not include the legacy http library. Hope the link can be useful for people wandering what could happen to their app when including it to their manifest.

Thank you.

We have the same issues which only happen on Android 9

We are using the following SDK version

minSdkVersion 14
targetSdkVersion 28

This is our crash report

[mobileadssdk...@google.com]

Hi all,

So there is a fix for this in the Ads SDK which will be launched soon, however in the meantime, we believe this crash is caused by the Android 9 updates to deprecate the Apache HTTP client as noted here.

To resolve the crashes in the meantime we recommend updating your AndroidManifest.xml to include the following:

<uses-library android:name="org.apache.http.legacy" android:required="false"/>

Note: The android:required="false" attribute is required for apps that have a minimum SDK of 23 or lower, because on devices with API levels lower than 24, the org.apache.http.legacy library is not available. (On those devices, the Apache HTTP classes are available on the bootclasspath.)

As an alternative to using the runtime Apache library, apps can bundle their own version of the org.apache.http library in their APK. If you do this, you must repackage the library (with a utility like Jar Jar) to avoid class compatibility issues with the classes provided in the runtime.

Regards

Sam

Hi,

No sorry this is not released yet and we don't have a specific release date.

I suggest continuing with the workaround for now.
