So the last parameter should be 0 in the final product?

It seems like there is ads no matter if the test parameter is 0 or 1, what's the difference?

In the production version, the final parameter should be 1.

AL, are you sure about that? I'm actually using CreateAdvertEX (but I assume it would be the same) and the last parameter (test) is set to '0'. Funnily enough, I received our fist payment from AdMob today so it definitely works this way.

The description also makes it sound as though you need to set '1' for test only...

It should be 0 before you release it, not 1.

Yeah the help seems incomplete and doesn't explain the test flag at all. I'm not entirely sure that it even matters when using AdMob as that flag was originally created for InnerActive and may not even be implemented for AdMob.

However, I receive ad clicks and revenue by setting it to 0.

I was soooo wrong. I am having the kind of day that anything I say or do is just not right.

Of course it should be zero.

No harm done. I'm pretty sure I received clicks when it was 1.

But it's hard to tell, because of AdMob's update delay.


By the way. Is it just me or are ads disabled in every custom rom? I recall you had to install adblocker app for rooted phones, but there isn't one in either of my rooted phones.
