Admob on Multiple Activities?

by

I DID this. Thankx to yorkw comment. This is not an efficient code. But you can modify accordingly. That reduces your code for each activity.

Just Extends “TestingAdmobActivity” & call SetupAds() to call your advs.

My SuperClass “TestingAdmobActivity.java”

package com.test.myadmob;

import com.google.ads.Ad;
import com.google.ads.AdListener;
import com.google.ads.AdRequest;
import com.google.ads.AdRequest.ErrorCode;
import com.google.ads.AdSize;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.os.Handler;
import android.os.Message;
import android.util.Log;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup.LayoutParams;
import android.widget.LinearLayout;

public class TestingAdmobActivity extends Activity implements AdListener{
    public AdView adView;
    public String ADV_PUB_ID = "a14e2fb60918999";
    private boolean adVisible = true;
    LinearLayout layout;

    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        Log.i("Admob", "Calling External");
    }

    public void SetupAds(){ 
    Log.i("AdMob", "Start Setup");
    layout = new LinearLayout(this);
    layout.setOrientation(LinearLayout.VERTICAL);
    layout.setGravity(android.view.Gravity.BOTTOM | android.view.Gravity.CENTER_HORIZONTAL);   //To put AdMob Adv to Bottom of Screen
    Log.i("AdMob", "End Layout Setup");

    addContentView(layout, new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT,LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT));

    adView = new AdView(this, AdSize.BANNER, ADV_PUB_ID);
    adView.setAdListener(this);
    Log.i("AdMob", "Init complete Adview");

    layout.addView(adView, new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
    Log.i("AdMob", "Done AddView Layout");

    AdRequest request = new AdRequest();    
    request.addTestDevice(AdRequest.TEST_EMULATOR);
    request.addKeyword("LifeOK");

    adView.loadAd(request);

    Log.i("AdMob", "End Setup");    
    }

    private Handler handler = new Handler() 
    {
        public void  handleMessage(Message msg) 
        {
            switch (msg.what)
            {
                case 0:     //Disable Adv
                    if (adVisible)
                        adVisible = false;
                    break;

                case 1:     //Enable Adv
                    if (!adVisible)
                    {
                        Log.i("AdMob", "Case 1");                       
                        adVisible = true;
                    }
                    break;

                case 2:     //Enable but Hide Adv
                        adView.setVisibility(View.GONE);                
                    break;

                case 3:     //Enable but Show Adv
                        adView.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
                    break;

                default:
                    break;
            }
        }
    };

    public void DisableAds()
    {
        Log.i("AdMob", "Request Disable Adv");
        handler.sendEmptyMessage(0);
    }

    public void EnableAds()
    {
        Log.i("AdMob", "Request Enable Adv");
        handler.sendEmptyMessage(1);
    }

    public void HideAdv()  //Enable Adv but Hide
    {
        Log.i("AdMob", "Request Hide Adv");
        handler.sendEmptyMessage(2);
    }

    public void ShowAdv()  //Show Adv
    {
        Log.i("AdMob", "Request Show Adv");
        handler.sendEmptyMessage(3);
    }

    @Override
    public void onDismissScreen(Ad arg0) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        Log.d("AdMob", "Dismiss Screen");
    }

    @Override
    public void onFailedToReceiveAd(Ad arg0, ErrorCode arg1) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        Log.d("AdMob", "failed to receive ad (" + arg1 + ")");    
    }

    @Override
    public void onLeaveApplication(Ad arg0) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        Log.d("AdMob", "Leaving Application");
    }

    @Override
    public void onPresentScreen(Ad arg0) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        Log.d("AdMob", "Present Screen");
    }

    @Override
    public void onReceiveAd(Ad arg0) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        Log.d("AdMob", "Adv Received");
    }
}

My FirstActivityClass “NewActivity_1.java”

package com.test.myadmob;

import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.util.Log;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;

public class NewActivity_1 extends TestingAdmobActivity {

     /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);
        Log.i("Admob", "OnCreate");
        SetupAds();
        Log.i("Admob", "Done");

        Button button1 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button1);
        button1.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {         
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                Log.i("Admob", "Going to Activity 2");
                Intent mainIntent = new Intent().setClass(NewActivity_1.this, NewActivity_2.class);
                startActivity(mainIntent);
            }
        });
    }
}

My SecondActivityClass “NewActivity_2.java”

package com.test.myadmob;

import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.util.Log;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;

public class NewActivity_2 extends TestingAdmobActivity {

     /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);
        Log.i("Admob", "OnCreate");
        SetupAds();
        Log.i("Admob", "Done");

        Button button1 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button1);
        button1.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {         
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                Log.i("Admob", "Going Back to Activity 1");
                finish();
            }
        });
    }
}

My AndroidManifest.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

    android:versionCode="1"

             >

        </activity>
    </application>

    <!-- AdMob SDK requires Internet permission -->
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_MOCK_LOCATION" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" /> 
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" />              <!-- to get Android Device ID -->   

</manifest>

Note: for the sake of permissions used by google admob sdk, i have to build this on android 4.0 sdk with min-sdk version 7
