I am trying to create a test of the admob plugin and I am haveing an issues witht the custom build option. I don't belive it is my setup with the admob itself. The custom build just will not load. I have edited the manifest to include the refrence for admob and have edited the gradle for the multidex exception. I have even changed to gles2 with itc turned on. I am going to try an empty project with a custom build but I don't think it will work. It starts and will Just crash on the splash screen after half a second, I have no context to go on. Did I install something wrong? Am I missing scripts? Is it just me?

  • make sure your editor and export template are built from the same revision.

Plot twist, the empty project worked. now what....

make sure your editor and export template are built from the same revision.

Yes, so I instead used Poings version of the plugin and I had it up and working in minutes, A shame I liked how light Shinils version is, maybe it needs to be updated, but it seemed to fix the issue.
