after immigrating my Admob to Google Play Services. I always get this error code

AdRequest.ERROR_CODE_NO_FILL

Here is explanation:

ERROR_CODE_NO_FILL The ad request was successful, but no ad was returned due to lack of ad inventory.

And I think it was implemented successful and I waited so long time (3 days) but no Ads return instead of empty space T.T

Here are my code details:

    <LinearLayout
        android:id="@+id/ad_layout"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:orientation="vertical"

    </LinearLayout>

adLayout = (LinearLayout) view.findViewById(R.id.ad_layout);

    adView = new AdView(getActivity());
    adView.setAdUnitId(Config.AD_PUBLISH_KEY);
    adView.setAdSize(AdSize.SMART_BANNER);
    adLayout.addView(adView);
    AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest.Builder()
    .build();
    adView.loadAd(adRequest);

It 's looked good but no Ads return, any helps are highly appreciated :D


Thank for your reading

Hi Tai,

Are you able to see test ads? If you're having trouble with fill, you can add in mediation.

Hi Amy, 

can you tell me more detail about "mediation "? Is it server problem ?
I always get this log 

02-28 12:37:09.168: I/Ads(4208): Use AdRequest.Builder.addTestDevice("3ADD408CE1872D48D4BB4C78DE50A59E") to get test ads on this device.

Hi Tal,

Is everything set up correctly in your manifest as well? You can check it against the migration guide here.

Hi Amy

Yes, I knew it before. It always says :

Hi Amy

This is my full log, I inserted "google-play-services_lib" but it always warned "The Google Play services resources were not found. Check your project configuration to ensure that the resources are included.
"

Thanks

Hi,

I extract my code (with admob) to another project, It worked well, 
I thinks this warning is the reason :

03-09 12:46:50.867: W/ResourceType(2453): getEntry failing because entryIndex 13 is beyond type entryCount 8
03-09 12:46:50.867: W/ResourceType(2453): Failure getting entry for 0x7f0c000d (t=11 e=13) in package 0 (error -2147483647)

Hi Tai,

The "resources not found" error is benign, so don't worry about that. It also looks like it's correctly added as a library project.

You should follow the first message in the log and add your Test Device to the Builder and let me know if you can get test ads (and send logs if you can't).

Dear, Admob supporter

I found that  I modified package ID and surprisingly, Ads show.
did you add my package id to your blacklist?
I also attach my source code above to prove my statement.


Thanks

Hello,
I am trying to migrate my app to google play services and i found same error.
No fiil from server.
Could you please help me?
I have mediation enabled and in old sdk works fine serving adds.

I have imported
     
import com.google.android.gms.ads.*;
 
   
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
           
private AdView adView;
And initialized
 
@Override
     
public void onDestroy() {
         
System.gc();
         
if(Constants.ProVersion==false)
         
{
                 
if (adView != null) {
                   adView
.destroy();
                 
}
             
}
                 
super.onDestroy();
     
}
     
@Override
   
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
   
{
 
       
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        rLayout
=new         RelativeLayout(this);
   
     
/......Additional content here ...../

        setContentView
(rLayout);

             
// Crear adView.
            adView
= new AdView(this);
            adView
.setAdUnitId( getString(R.string.admob_unit));
            adView
.setAdSize(AdSize.BANNER);
 
       
           
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams myparams=
                     
new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
                             
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
        myparams
.addRule(RelativeLayout.CENTER_HORIZONTAL   ,RelativeLayout.TRUE );
        myparams
.addRule(RelativeLayout.ALIGN_PARENT_BOTTOM ,RelativeLayout.TRUE );
         rLayout
.addView(adView,myparams);
       
       
// Iniciar una solicitud genérica.
         
AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest .Builder().addTestDevice("805604FB5D94D59E0F9E4CA91B95AB02").build();
       
// Cargar adView con la solicitud de anuncio.
           adView
.loadAd(adRequest);
       
}
I have also setted manifest  as  said here
But I get  following log wich says no fill from server

Hi Francisco,

Are you still having problems with this?

It sounds like you're getting back ads and just have poor fill. You should look into mediation.

Hi AdMob SDK Team,

Now I face the same issue that Tai Tran met before.

Google Play Service Lib Revision: 22
Target Android SDK: 4.4.2

I follow the below steps to integrate admob mediation function:
1. Add an app in https://apps.admob.com/ and get a corresponding Ad Unit Id
2. Add and reference the Google Play services library project in my Eclipse workspace.
3. Add a meta-data tag in AndroidManifest.xml.
4. Declare com.google.android.gms.ads.AdActivity in the manifest.
5. Set up network permissions in the manifest.

But still got the below error log:
01-30 21:57:54.194: I/Ads(14625): Starting ad request.
01-30 21:57:54.194: I/Ads(14625): Use AdRequest.Builder.addTestDevice("FB25BF0331E25BA39E2BB3400C6C2C44") to get test ads on this device.
01-30 21:57:54.204: I/Ads(14625): Please set theme of AdActivity to @android:style/Theme.Translucent to enable transparent background interstitial ad.
01-30 21:57:55.075: I/Ads(14625): No fill from ad server.
01-30 21:57:55.085: W/Ads(14625): Failed to load ad: 3
01-30 21:57:55.085: W/Ads(14625): No fill

Here is the magic thing, 
after I change the package name to another, my app shows ad successfully!

But the biggest problem is that my app is already on the Play Store
so I can't change package name as I want.

By the way, I use old admob sdk before it works, 
but as an developer I want to keep my library update to the newest one.

Here are my questions:
1. Why my old package name always got AdRequest.ERROR_CODE_NO_FILL?
Is it because I use old sdk before so that I can't switch to the new one or other reason?
2. I have to release a new version of my app in three days, if you can't fix this quickly can 
you give an old version of admob sdk as a workaround ? It' very urgent now.

Anyway, thanks!

Best Regards,
Kenji

At a  guess I would say that what you really needed to do was perform a clean build.
Changing your package may well have triggered some of that.

Suggest you change you packagename back to your original package and build clean.
See how that goes.

Hi William,

I already change my package name back to the original one and do an clean build but still got AdRequest.ERROR_CODE_NO_FILL.

Not only me facing this problem, can you try to trace internally to see if there is the black-list package names or if it's because I use old sdk before to integrate admob with my package name (At that time, admob sdk is in a format of jar file).

Thanks!

Best Regards,
Kenji

Kenji, I don't work for Google, so I can't trace anything. 

I'm just another developer like yourself. Albeit one who has been using Admob for the last 4 years.

NB I had zero issues migrating from Admob-6.4.1 to the Google Play Services version.

I'm pretty certain that the Ad serving mechanics on the server side are the same regardless of whether the client is Admob-6.4.1 or Google Play Services. So the shift to GPS is unlikely to the issue unless you haver misconfigured/miscoded the client.

What is weird is that you are getting ads using GPS with a changed package name.

In most cases, when an app can't receive ads with its original package name it's because the app has been suspended due to policy violations.  I would recommend checking with AdMob.com and the Play store to make sure your app is in good standing with both.

Andrew correct me if I am wrong, but I wouldn't have thought the Play Store had any input into Admob policy violations.

Now that you mentioned it, I'm not sure if that's something I've actually read in an official policy or just picked up during conversation with other engineers here. I would assume, though, that if your app was blacklisted from the Play store, you'd lose access to other Google services as well. 

As always, we're the technical forum rather than the people who handle policy, so the contact forms on AdMob.com are a much better source for definitive answers on those kinds of questions.

Hi Both,

Thank you for the discussion and update, I check the admob and found that there is a policy violation which I still don't know why.
That's the root cause that I can't get ad from admob server.

I will try to appeal to admob and see if I can get my account back to a valid status.

Thanks!

Best Regards,
Kenji
