I am trying to get the Google play services ads set up on my app. However whenever I attempt the call the
adView.loadAd()
it crashes the app. If I comment out this line the ad doesn't crash but the window doesn't show up. I've tried looking at similar questions about this topic but couldn't find a solution that would work for me. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
this is from my main:
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
// Look up the AdView as a resource and load a request.
AdView adView = (AdView)this.findViewById(R.id.adView1);
AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest.Builder().build();
adView.loadAd(adRequest); // this is what seems to be causing the problem
