[11.3] AdMob support for Android + EU Consent

[yetneverdone]

Awesome. although i really recommend to make a separate wiki for guideline on how to set it up. Original repo is outdated, especially the game packaging/deploying wiki

First of all, I forgot to mention that I also had to change love\build.gradle:

Code: Select all

         ndk {
             // Specifies the ABI configurations of your native
             // libraries Gradle should build and package with your APK.
-            abiFilters 'armeabi-v7a', 'armeabi'
+            abiFilters 'x86'
         }

Because I use an Intel.

Whatsoever, lately a lot busy, but I repeated my steps on the official Android port, and it persists. So I'm wrong here. I will repost my issue on other places with my exact steps, later. The problem is not caused by your fork.

Interesting is, that I cannot install the APK on my main mobile that runs CM, only the stock SGS3 is able to install the APK, but then I get the SDL error, all the time.

I second that, maybe I will create some tutorials on this forum.

Hey, i need guide. Ive managed to build the apk, signed and aligned it, although when installing it on my phone, it always says "apk is not installed". What are the changes youve made? ive only changed the AndroidManifest.xml, and added my APP-ID Unit.

UPDATE:
Ive managed to install the apk by uninstalling the love2d app (from playstore). Im pretty sure that shouldnt be like that, any solution?

Anyways, ive fixed it now. THERE SHOULD REALLY BE A PROPER GUIDE! I dont mind making one, but i think mobiX is already making one. Just ask me if you have any problem

Hi guys, I agree that should be a proper guide, but I think that it should be made for the original port, because the deploying process is the same.
In addition, I think that if it works on my machine without any issues it should works on your machine too.
Anyway if you need to change your app’s name or version, you can take a look at the .txt in the root folder.

Yes, also guide update for the original repo. But yours also since there are additional config as to using admob. I'll try make a pull request at the original repo.

Ps. What . txt file? I dont seen any

You're right. I was sure I put that.

To edit the title of the app edit ./app/src/main/AndroidMainfest.xml
To edit the version and the bundle identifier edit ./app/build.gradle

That means that it is useless to edit the bundle identifier in the manifest.

If you have any suggestion for the admob guide let me know.
Thank you

Yeah, changing the package name in manifest does not do anything, learned that the long way haha.

Hey, ive forked your repo and added my instruction/guide in the wiki here: https://bitbucket.org/brbl/love2d-admob ... nstruction
IDK how to PR that, please have a look at it before i make any more updates

PS. Youve mentioned that changing AndroidManifest.xml is useless, so what about the game activity? Do i still need to create my own folder struction beside org.love2d.android ??

Great, but your NDK links are broken tho.

I'm very busy lately. You are welcome to post a guide for it here on the forum, don't hold yourself back.
