Hi Jaryd,

 

Thank you for reaching out to us.

 

This seems to be more of a Google Play Services issue rather than an AdMob SDK one, as evidenced by the terms "com.google.android.gms.common.app.GmsApplication" and "com.google.android.gms.persistent". The Google Play Services of affected devices may have been disabled, or otherwise rendered non-functional, which may have led to these crashes.

 

I would suggest reaching out to the Google Play Help Center for further assistance on your concern, as I'm afraid that we can only assist you in your technical concerns with the AdMob SDK in this forum.

 

Regards,

Ziv Yves Sanchez

I have the same issue. Rare, but still occurs.

Any help about this?

Hi Liran,

addOnPermissionsChangeListener is protected by permission android.permission.OBSERVE_GRANT_REVOKE_PERMISSIONS which is a signature | privileged permission. From the stack trace it looks like the caller of addOnPermissionsChangeListener doesn't have required permission. It's hard to find out why the caller doesn't have such permission, but it's not caused by the Google Mobile Ads SDK.
