Hi there,

Thank you for reporting this. I could see that you opened multiple threads on the public forum. For better tracking of the issue, let's centralize the discussion here instead.

With regard to your concern, would it be possible for you to provide a project (or at least a test project) where the issue is reproducible? This will greatly help in order for us to debug the issue further. Please use the Reply privately to author option to share the details privately.

Regards,
Teejay Pimentel

Hello,

I've sent the info via private message, have you received? 

[Mobile Ads SDK Forum Advisor Prod]

Hi there,

You may upload the project file into your Google Drive and provide us the shareable link instead privately. Also, please provide us the steps to reproduce the crash.

[Melqui Eugenio]

Done,

Waiting,

Thanks.

Hello,

I've found that by removing these lines:

implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-measurement:17.3.0'
implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-measurement-sdk:17.3.0'

from 'dependencies' on the 'build.gradle (Module: App)' file in the project, the crashing disappears in some devices.

Although, it may cause other bugs in other ones, such as not loading the ad nor the background color of the app.

Hi there,

Im afraid that I'm having a bit of trouble getting the sample project (you've provided) to run, particularly due to the Gradle dependencies involved. If possible, could you kindly provide a modified sample project (using our sample app), reproducing the issue, so that I can move forward with the investigation?

[Mobile Ads SDK Forum Advisor Prod]

Hi there, 

I tested your app with playservices 17.3.0 in the implementations on an Android level 18 emulator and it crashed like this:

04-06 14:56:06.135 3873-3886/? E/AndroidRuntime: FATAL EXCEPTION: Thread-123

    java.lang.VerifyError: com/google/android/gms/measurement/api/AppMeasurementSdk
        at com.google.android.gms.internal.ads.zzalc.zzd(com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads-lite@@19.0.1:41)
        at com.google.android.gms.internal.ads.zzalf.run(com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads-lite@@19.0.1)
        at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:841)

When the measurement sdk version17.3.0 wasn't included there was no crash. I will be bringing this up with my team. We will get back to you as soon as we have more information.

Hi Melqui,

 

Thank you for your patience on this matter.

 

Could you kindly confirm if adding the following dependency would resolve the issue on your end?

 

implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-measurement-sdk-api:17.3.0'

Hi Melqui,

 

As an aside, I've deleted the link to the sample project folder that you've shared to us in an earlier post, as it contained sensitive data (such as your app unit ID).

Hello ads team,

Adding that line caused Gradle synchronization to fail:

Hi Melqui,

 

Thank you for updating us on your concern.

 

The error shown in your log (Invalid file found (empty apk data)) seems to be more of a general Android Studio-related build issue than an AdMob SDK one. With that said, could you kindly try any of the following to see if they would work for you?

• Delete the project's intermediates folder (app/build/intermediates), then rebuild the project.
• Do File -> Invalidate Caches/Restart, then rebuild the project.

Hello,

First I tried deleting that folder and rebuilding as asked:

I got the error "Invalid file found (empty apk data)" once again.

Then I tried to 'Invalidate Caches/Restart' and rebuild: 

BUILD SUCCESSFUL

CONFIGURE SUCCESSFUL

Then I tested on a device API 18 and 19:

 Success.

Then the solution is:

1. adding the line to build.gradle: implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-measurement-sdk-api:17.3.0'

2. deleting the folder: app/build/intermediates

3. doing: file -> Invalidate Caches/Restart, and then rebuilding the project.

 

Thank you Google Ads Team,

Regards,

Melqui Eugenio.
