Hello Admob crash on Windows Phone 8.1

[Konstantin_R_]

Hi all,

I continue to look for an opportunity to get admob on windows phone.

After the release of the new version of XDK, I decided to build "Hello Admob", but the application is crash when I deploy and run it on my windows phone 8.1

Who ever able to get AdMob on Windows Phone 8.1?

I have tried a lot of admob plugins in my project and everything did not show anything on wp8.1. Then I decided to build "hello admob" from XDK Samples and Demos but he crashed on start.

I haven't tried the sample app on WP8.1. I will look into it and update the thread. Thank you for your patience.

hi all,

I am also having the same issue . My application crash when I deploy and run it on my windows phone 8.1.

Thank you ,

Okay. So I think the issue might be your projects (and maybe the admob sample) uses plugins that are not compatible with Windows 8. If you can narrow down such a plugin, try removing it and code that makes plugin calls. Let me know if the issue persists. Thanks!

Konstantin,

It looks like HelloAdmob is crashing on Windows Phone because of the initDebug() function I had added for debugging purposes. 

But either way, floatinghotspot admob basic plugin does not work on Windows. Have you tried the cranberry one? https://github.com/cranberrygame/phonegap-plugin-ad-admob

In the previous versions XDK - floatinghotspot and cranberry admob plugins did not work on wp8.1

I noticed a related issue on Cranberry admob Github page - https://github.com/cranberrygame/phonegap-plugin-ad-admob/issues/1

It looks like it does work on WP8.1.
