I know this sounds stupid but have you made sure that your device was connected to the internet when you ran the app?
Edit:
Not sure if it will work but have you made sure that you have the Google API's and Google Repositories downloaded in your Android SDK via SDK Manager.


Have you double checked your device id and that you're not just testing on another emulator or device with a different id?


I forgot that I had AdAway installed.
After removing it, the AD is showing.


You have padding left, right, top, bottom in your parent layout remove it and try again! I had the same problem with you and I just solve it with that trick

Android: Application is crashing On Startup

I am a novice and I'm just creating a simple Android app in which there are 2 buttons that take you to different pages when clicked, which have different functions.
However, my app crashes on start-up, simply saying
Unfortunately [app name] has stopped
and I don't understand
As I have barely made any changes to my MainActivity.java, the code seems to be well written, and eclipse displays no errors... Any help, please? I have searched around Stack, but I can't find anything specific to this...
Here is my MainActivity.java:
package com.example.helper;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.MenuItem;
import android.view.View;
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
return true;
}
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
// automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
// as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
int id = item.getItemId();
if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
/**Called upon when the user clicks the 'Abbreviations' button*/
public void listDefinitions (View view){
Intent intent = new Intent(this, ListDefinitions.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
/**Called upon when the user clicks the 'Assistant' button*/
public void openAssistant (View view){
Intent intent = new Intent(this, Assistant.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
}
Here is my activity_main.xml:

My ListDefinitions.java & Assistant.java are untouched at this point.

</manifest>

It's your manifest, replace the "last" activity in your manifest by this :
<activity
android:name=".Assistant"
android:label="#string/title_activity_preach_assistant"
android:parentActivityName=".MainActivity" >
<meta-data
android:name="android.support.PARENT_ACTIVITY"
android:value="com.example.theocratichelper.MainActivity" />
</activity>
Your class name is Assistant and not PreachAssistant i presume.

Just replace the last activity in Android Manifest by this.
<activity
android:name=".Assistant"
android:label="#string/title_activity_preach_assistant"
</activity>

action_settings cannot be resolved or is not a field

How to you be able to show the map in the simulator using OSMdroid?

Im working on a navigation project using osmdroid.
I'm using Android studio for developing that app
This is my Activity class
package com.example.dummmmy.dummmmmy;
import android.support.v7.app.ActionBarActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.MenuItem;

import org.osmdroid.views.MapController;
import org.osmdroid.views.MapView;
public class MyActivity extends ActionBarActivity {
private MapController mapController;
private MapView mapView;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_my);
mapView = (MapView) findViewById(R.id.mapview);
mapView.setTileSource(TileSourceFactory.DEFAULT_TILE_SOURCE);
mapView.setBuiltInZoomControls(true);
mapController = mapView.getController();
mapController.setZoom(15);
GeoPoint point2 = new GeoPoint(51496994, -134733);
mapController.setCenter(point2);
}
protected boolean isRouteDisplayed() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return false;
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.my, menu);
return true;
}
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
// automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
// as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
int id = item.getItemId();
if (id == R.id.action_settings) {

Sometimes issues may be in Graphical Layout
Try like this..
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:ads="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:id="#+id/rltvLayout1"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<com.google.android.gms.ads.AdView
android:id="#+id/adViews"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
ads:adUnitId="aasss"
ads:adSize="BANNER" />
</RelativeLayout>
Hope it will work :)
