Getting on AdMobs problems

Question

I'm having some strange problems with starting with AdMobs.

FIRST PROBLEM

When I try to add my banner by this code:

        layout = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.adprincipal);
    adView = new AdView(this);
    adView.setAdUnitId("my unit id");
    adView.setAdSize(AdSize.BANNER);
    AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest.Builder()  
    .addTestDevice("my device")  
    .build();
    // Load the adView with the ad request.
    adView.loadAd(adRequest);
    layout.addView(adView);

I don't get anything if I set the size AdSize.SMART_BANNER but I get a test banner with AdSize.BANNER but ANYWAY (even BANNER and SMART_BANNER) this is what I get from LogCat:

and the SMART BANNER doesn't load

SECOND PROBLEM

I got the same errors than "BANNER" setting an INTERSTITIAL, but it also finally loads...

What's wrong??

I've tried: this, this and this I have reinstalled my library, downloaded the lastet, deleted and reinstalled... etcetera.

Thanks.

Where are you running this application on device or emulator? — Tabrej Khan, Dec 30 '13 at 14:06

On emulator change following:

AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest.Builder()  
    .addTestDevice("my device")  
    .build();

to

AdRequest request = new AdRequest.Builder()
        .addTestDevice(AdRequest.DEVICE_ID_EMULATOR)        // All emulators
        .addTestDevice("B3EEABB8EE11C2BE770B684D95219ECB")  // Emulator id you will get in the LogCat verbose
        .build();
       adView.loadAd(request);

On real device:

adView.loadAd(new AdRequest.Builder().build());

Also, check on your Ad server (most problably AdMob), if the Ad for your ad_unit_id has BANNER, SMART BANNER and INTERSTITIAL enabled.

Now suddenly it works also for SMART_BANNER but the errors are coming on anyway. I checked on AdMobs and it's counting impressions as well. – Rafael Ruiz Muñoz Dec 31 '13 at 01:12
Thank you so much. The BANNER settings where wrong on AdMob site – Aug 22 '14 at 11:15
Tasty I'm facing same issue, sometime SMART_BANNER isn't loading in landscape mode, I implemented recommended answer but issue isn't resolved to me. furthermore I cant find any setting for SMART_BANNER on AdMob site, could you highlight which setting you followed? – Aqib Mumtaz Oct 09 '14 at 14:42
