I currently Finished a Project and put it on the Google Play Store. I created the Application Using Adobe Flash CS6 and Flash Develop AS3.

Now I want to put Ads on my game using Admob but I can't seem to do it to save the life of me. I tried for hours I searched everywhere. I don't have any money to purchase any ANE Native Extension files so I just don't know what to do.

Please if anyone knows how to do this i would more than Appreciate it!!!

  • Alright thank you I will give it a try right now. So just download the "ane" they provide there and follow these instructions correct? https://github.com/pozirk/ANEAdMob/blob/master/readme.md – Nathan Mar 06 '14 at 04:10

  • android.permission.INTERNET added in manifest ? see Updating your AIR application descriptor file in this http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/articles/admob-ane-android.html – LOG_TAG Mar 06 '14 at 04:47
  • Yes i added them correctly I think. Wait Am i supposed to add the _admob.init and the _admob.show(AdParams.SIZE_IAB_BANNER, AdParams.HALIGN_CENTER, AdParams.VALIGN_BOTTOM); inside the protected function onEvent(ae:AdEvent):void ???? – Nathan Mar 06 '14 at 05:36

I did have your same problem too.

I spent a lot of time looking for a reliable ANE extension for AdMob in Air application.

All the one i found were always limited in option, outdated or not maintained. neither the less all seems base in old adMob SDKs which do not pass Google and app store approval.

I then found this other ANE extension which seems a lot more complete and is free:
-https://github.com/lancelot1/ane-admob

This extension is amazing is extremely updated to the latest SDk , has a lot of features and work a first try.

I'm really happy with it.

If you are still looking for the right ANE extension for AdMob i strongly recommend you this!

I tried this admob ANE: http://code.google.com/p/flash-air-admob-ane-for-ios-and-android
and my app work well now.

some important

1.check up option handler permission by user on flash cs target set panel if not check up this option,flash IDE will change the xml file auto witch caused not ad show

2.add permission config for android,it is easy to forget to do.

<android>
    <manifestAdditions><![CDATA[
        <manifest android:installLocation="auto">
           <uses-sdk
    android:minSdkVersion="9"
    android:targetSdkVersion="18" />
            <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>
            <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE"/>
            <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE"/>
            <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE"/>
            <application>
        <meta-data android:name="com.google.android.gms.version"
    android:value="@integer/google_play_services_version" />
                    <activity
        android:name="com.google.android.gms.ads.AdActivity"
        android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|orientation|screenLayout|uiMode|screenSize|smallestScreenSize"/>
            </application>
