I'm having this issue on one of my ads for an ios game
Here is my code, the odd thing is that if I add the device on the request.testDevices list it displays the demo banner, if I remove from testDevices, it does not show a real banner, but if I change my bundleIdentifier on XCODE, it shows a real banner,so I believe its something with my admob account, does anyone ever got something like it?
Its always failing with this error:

I just had this error today, the problem for me was simple, it was because the adUnitID is basically still new. I had to wait more than 2 hours after creating the adUnitID in order for the ads to be served.
If you have this error, and some of your adUnitIDs serve ads and some don't. You're highly likely having the same issue, and the only way to fix it is to wait.
The ad server will return this message mainly because of the following:
There are no ads for your ad unit id.
Check whether your ad unit id is proper or not.
You will get the same error if either your banner width/height is 0.
Make sure that your adUnitID is perfect.

AdMob Legacy Publisher ID not showing ads
I had just created a new account and seen that problem. When checking my account there was a message shown on the top of admob page: "Your ad units are not displaying ads because you haven't provided your account payments information yet.". Click on the button Fix it, fill the form and the ads will be shown within few hours
I met this error too. Both my banner and interstitial ads failed with this error. I found that it is my mistake to change UserAgent globally, after I change UserAgent to default it works well.
Make sure you are using the test ad IDs when in a debug session.
https://developers.google.com/admob/ios/banner?hl=en-US
The easiest way to load test ads is to use our dedicated test ad unit ID for iOS banners: ca-app-pub-3940256099942544/2934735716
This error could happen if you have not setup your payment and billing information in your AdMob account.
As per Admob after you setup the payment details, it can take up to 2 hours before it would be completely functional
Billing and Payments
This solved my problem
changing banner id to example id.
run the app then .
changing id back to production id.
For me, the reason why it started showing this is that I didn't have any payment methods set up on my AdMob account.
Once I have set this up, the error has disappeared and ads started showing instantly.
Hope this helps someone!
One possible reason is a Constraint bug.
you should guarantee your bannerView's constraint to other views is
right
I had the same issue when testing the sample application on my phone. I fixed with the following steps:
Reset Advertising identifier on iPhone 6, Go to:
Settings -> Privacy -> Advertising -> Reset Ad identifier
After create adUnitID, Wait for 1-2 hours and then try it out.
Because I had the same issue and it gets solved just after 1-2 hours.
Enjoy coding :)
If you are using your app in debug or testing mode make sure you are using test AppID and BannerID provided by google admob which would be as:-
Google Test AdMobID:
ca-app-pub-3940256099942544~1458002511
Google Test BannerID
ca-app-pub-3940256099942544/2934735716
In my case, ads are working fine but suddenly it stop showing ad with error: No ad to show.
I noticed console is throwing error about test device identifier. Somehow the test device identifier get changed. I don't know how it happen, may be due to Xcode upgrade. I am not sure. But once I changed the test device identifier, it start working again.
Do not make any modifications in code if this error pops, just wait about 3-4 days. Google takes time to send adds for new accounts
Make sure not to make an other variable of GADBannerView. Use one variable in every controller by making it global and just change unit id.
e.g this line should be out of any controller (global)
var bannerView: GADBannerView!
then use it wherever you want and just change id accordingly
bannerView.adUnitID = "ca-app-exampleid-abcabc938-4e8"
I was used to init the banner like this:
adBannerView = GADBannerView()
and it was working.
I can't say precisely from which AdMob library version, but suddently the banner wasn't show anymore.
Init the banner with the size as parameter, fixed the problem:
adBannerView = GADBannerView(adSize: kGADAdSizeBanner)
I solve this by adding request.testDevice = #[#"xxxxxxxxxxxx"] before load request.(I get this tip and test device number from console)
The best way I think should be used the test ad Ids from the integration guide from Google, after that change to your Ad Ids when it goes live.
I faced with this issue even with google test ad units.
In my scenario, problem was, I modified the WkWebView UserAgent directly without concatenating with the real one.
I had to change from;
static func arrangeUserAgent() {
let webView = WKWebView()
webView.evaluateJavaScript("navigator.userAgent") { (result, error) in
webView.customUserAgent = "Some Awesome User Agent"
let dictionary = Dictionary(dictionaryLiteral: ("UserAgent", webView.customUserAgent!))
UserDefaults.standard.register(defaults: dictionary)
}
}
to;
static func arrangeUserAgent() {
let webView = WKWebView()
webView.evaluateJavaScript("navigator.userAgent") { (result, error) in
let mergedUserAgent = "\(result ?? "") Some Awesome UserAgent"
webView.customUserAgent = mergedUserAgent
let dictionary = Dictionary(dictionaryLiteral: ("UserAgent", mergedUserAgent))
UserDefaults.standard.register(defaults: dictionary)
}
}
Had rough times to find the problem.
Be careful with the UserAgent you change.
Happy coding.
In the Settings of your iOS device: Settings > Privacy > Advertising: Turn on and then turn off "Limit Ad Tracking" ("Reset of Ad Identifier" doesn't always help. Try "Reset of Ad Identifier" first and comment if this action doesn't help you).
But! It will help only get ads on your own device and will not solve the problem that matching rate of your ad is low.
I have integrated AppLovin in AdMOb mediation. And followed all the steps mentioned in AppLovin docs.
When I run the application to show AppLovin videos with below code,
GADInterstitial* interstitialVideo = [[GADInterstitial alloc] initWithAdUnitID:#"ca-app-pub-xxxxxxxxxxxx"];
interstitialVideo.delegate = self;
GADRequest *request = [GADRequest request];
// Requests test ads on test devices.
request.testDevices = #[ testDeview ];
[interstitialVideo loadRequest:request];
if ([interstitialVideo isReady]) {
[interstitialVideo presentFromRootViewController:self];
}
I am getting below exception,
[2604:1732410] -[GADMAdapterAppLovinRewardBasedVideoAd initWithGADMAdNetworkConnector:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x1283d7570
2016-04-20 16:14:32.100 [2604:1732410] *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '-[GADMAdapterAppLovinRewardBasedVideoAd initWithGADMAdNetworkConnector:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x1283d7570'
** First throw call stack:
I tried adding -ObjC -all_load to other linker flags but still i get same exception.
Please let me know if any one know whats wrong here.
Finally I fixed the issue.
I need to use below code instead of above code(as mentioned in question)
//Initialize
[GADRewardBasedVideoAd sharedInstance].delegate = self;
[[GADRewardBasedVideoAd sharedInstance] loadRequest:[GADRequest request]
withAdUnitID:#"ca-app-pub-xxxxxxxxxxxx"];
//To show add
if ([[GADRewardBasedVideoAd sharedInstance] isReady]) {
[[GADRewardBasedVideoAd sharedInstance] presentFromRootViewController:self];
}
After above changes I started getting the AppLovin videos.

Can you verify that you've added our most recent AdMob adapters to your project? It looks like you're trying to use interstitials but getting a rewarded video error. Did you configure a rewarded video ad unit in your AdMob dashboard instead of an interstitial by mistake or vice versa?

NSLog(#"iAd banner shown");
Above is an example of my NSLog message i'm using. However, the debug area appears but no NSLog message appears in it. I'm also having an issue with AdMob test banner. I am using AdMobSDKiOS7.0.0
GADRequest *request =[GADRequest request];
request.testDevices = #[ #"testDeviceIDNumber" ];
[adMobView loadRequest:request];
I'm supposed to get a message from Google stating my test device ID number to get test ads on my device. When I run the device the debug area appears completely empty. No NSLog statements and no test device ID Number.
Did I accidentally click something off in Xcode? What can I do to get messages in Debug area again?
Sounds like you hid your console.
You have to use YOUR code after getting your ID.
First just connect your test device and put code like this:
adMobView = [[GADBannerView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0.0,self.view.frame.size.height - 50, self.view.frame.size.width, CGSizeFromGADAdSize(kGADAdSizeSmartBannerPortrait).height)];//banner on the bottom
self.adMobView.adUnitID = #"ca-app-pub-xxxxxx/xxxxxxxxx";
self.adMobView.rootViewController = self;
self.adMobView.delegate = self;
[self.view addSubview:self.adMobView];
[self.adMobView loadRequest:[GADRequest request]];
..and run your app. You will see a message like this in your Debug area:
<Google> To get test ads on this device, call: request.testDevices = #[ #"testDeviceNumber" ]
I can't get a test banner to load on a device. However, test banner loads on simulator no problem. I'm trying to test my AdMob/iAd singleton mediation. It works fine with test ads on simulator but AdMob never loads the test banner on actual device.
The following is the code to present AdMob banner:
self.adBanner_=[[GADBannerView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 50)];
adBanner_.hidden=NO;
adBanner_.delegate = self;
adBanner_.adUnitID = #"Unit-ID";
GADRequest *request = [GADRequest request];
[self.adBanner_ loadRequest:request];
self.adBanner_.rootViewController = self;
[self.view addSubview:self.adBanner_];
isLoaded_ = YES;
// request.testDevices = #[ GAD_SIMULATOR_ID ]; <--loads test ad on simulator
request.testDevices = #[ #"number" ]; <--supposed to load test ads on real device
Why aren't I receiving AdMob test ads on real device yet there's no problem with AdMob test ads on simulator? Is code wrong?
Just run your app on your test device. In the Debug Area AdMob will give you your test ID like so:
<Google> To get test ads on this device, call: request.testDevices = #[ #"testDeviceIDNumber" ]
After that just place your testDeviceIDNumber here:
GADRequest *request = [GADRequest request];
request.testDevices = #[ #"testDeviceNumberIDNumber"];
[self.adBanner_ loadRequest:request];
For keep testing on the simulator also, add #"Simulator" in this row:
request.testDevices = #[ #"testDeviceNumberIDNumber", #"Simulator"];
Hi After I add GADBannerView, the delegate bannerViewDidLoadAd notice that received new ad, why nothing be showed on the view?
botBanner = [[GADBannerView alloc] initWithAdSize:GADAdSizeFullWidthPortraitWithHeight(50)];
botBanner.adUnitID = kGADKey;
botBanner.delegate = self;
botBanner.rootViewController = self;
[_adBannerBotView addSubview:botBanner];
adRequest = [GADRequest request];
// Make the request for a test ad. Put in an identifier for
// the simulator as well as any devices you want to receive test ads.
adRequest.testDevices = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:#"<I add my device id>", GAD_SIMULATOR_ID, nil];
[botBanner loadRequest:adRequest];
I found the answer, it's really stupid.
Post this for someone that also looking for this stupid problem.
If you want to received ad on your device, DO NOT put your device ID in the adRequest.testDevices
