AppLovin is crashing - in AdLoadListener.adReceived..

srchinta · April 14, 2016, 11:08pm

Applovin is crashing very frequently especially when. I have tested this with latest release build as well as 2864.

Any clues ?

Can you provide more context?

Can you show us your code around initing the plugin, it’s listener and so on?

srchinta · April 15, 2016, 12:17am

I am displaying approving when the app loads (clean startup & resume - non-incentive ), and also using it as rewarded ads to get coins etc.

My observations are:

sometimes I saw approvin ads playing without any issues - both at startup(non-incentive) & rewarded ads.
sometimes rewarded ads show complete blank screen and app eventually crashes ( unresponsive )
sometimes app crashes during startup time ( the crash dump I have attached in my first message )

Below is the my code :

local applovin = require( "plugin.applovin" ) local function loadApplovinVideoAd( isIncentivized ) applovin.load( isIncentivized ) end local function AppLovinAdListener( event ) -- Successful initialization of the AppLovin plugin if ( event.phase == "init" ) then myDbgPrint(DBG\_LVL, "AppLovinAdListener - event: initialization successful" ) myDbgPrint(DBG\_LVL, "AppLovinAdListener - event.error: ", event.isError ) loadApplovinVideoAd( true ) -- incentivized loadApplovinVideoAd( false) -- NOT-incentivized -- An ad loaded successfully elseif ( event.phase == "loaded" ) then myDbgPrint(DBG\_LVL, "AppLovinAdListener - event: " .. tostring(event.type) .. " ad loaded successfully" ) -- The ad was displayed/played elseif ( event.phase == "displayed" or event.phase == "playbackBegan" ) then myDbgPrint(DBG\_LVL, "AppLovinAdListener - event: " .. tostring(event.type) .. " ad displayed" ) -- The ad was closed/hidden elseif ( event.phase == "hidden" or event.phase == "playbackEnded" ) then myDbgPrint(DBG\_LVL, "AppLovinAdListener - event: " .. tostring(event.type) .. " ad closed/hidden" ) -- The user clicked/tapped an ad elseif ( event.phase == "clicked" ) then myDbgPrint(DBG\_LVL, "AppLovinAdListener - event: " .. tostring(event.type) .. " ad clicked/tapped" ) -- The ad failed to load elseif ( event.phase == "failed" ) then myDbgPrint(DBG\_LVL, "AppLovinAdListener - event: " .. tostring(event.type) .. " ad failed to load" ) -- The user declined to view a rewarded/incentivized video ad elseif ( event.phase == "declinedToView" ) then myDbgPrint(DBG\_LVL, "AppLovinAdListener - event: user declined to view " .. tostring(event.type) .. " ad" ) -- The user viewed a rewarded/incentivized video ad elseif ( event.phase == "validationSucceeded" ) then myDbgPrint(DBG\_LVL, "AppLovinAdListener - event: " .. tostring(event.type) .. " ad viewed and reward approved by AppLovin server" ) -- local alert = native.showAlert( "Note", "AppLovin reward of " .. tostring(event.data.amount) .. " " .. tostring(event.data.currency) .. " registered!", { "OK" } ) -- The incentivized/rewarded video ad and/or reward exceeded quota, failed, or was rejected elseif ( event.phase == "validationExceededQuota" or event.phase == "validationFailed" or event.phase == "validationRejected" ) then myDbgPrint(DBG\_LVL, "AppLovinAdListener - event: " .. tostring(event.type) .. " ad and/or reward exceeded quota, failed, or was rejected" ) end end local function applovin\_ads\_available( isIncentivized ) return applovin.isLoaded( isIncentivized ) end local function displayVideoAd\_Applovin( isIncentivized ) local ret = false if ( applovin\_ads\_available( isIncentivized ) == true ) then ret = true applovin.show( isIncentivized ) end loadApplovinVideoAd( true ) loadApplovinVideoAd( false ) return ret end local function initApplovinAds() applovin.init( AppLovinAdListener, { sdkKey=\_ACCOUNTS.ADS.APPLOVIN.KEY, verboseLogging=true } ) end -------------------------- below is how I call it local function displayVideoAd( isIncentivized ) &nbsp; &nbsp;local ret = applovin\_ads\_available( isIncentivized )

if ( ret == true ) then

analyticsLogEvent(“Ads_shown_applovin”)

analyticsLogEvent(“Ads_shown_total”)

if ( isIncentivized == true ) then – for incentivized ads

myDbgPrint(2, " Displaying AppLovin video ad")

timer.performWithDelay(10, FF_Ads_reward_free_feathers, 1)

analyticsLogEvent(“Ads_shown_incentivized_applovin”)

analyticsLogEvent(“Ads_shown_incentivized”)

else

analyticsLogEvent(“Ads_shown_nonIncentivized_applovin”)

analyticsLogEvent(“Ads_shown_nonIncentivized”)

end

displayVideoAd_Applovin( isIncentivized )

else

myDbgPrint(2, " FAILED to display AppLovin video ad")

analyticsLogEvent(“Ads_failed_applovin”)

analyticsLogEvent(“Ads_failed_total”)

end

–

displayVideoAd( true | false )

Let me know if you need anything else.

srchinta · April 15, 2016, 12:48am

and the below ‘ads logcat’ logs are from an instance where I played an applovin incentivized ad and the app froze.

I got a black screen (my game music was still playing during that time), app got unresponsive, and was killed; i.e. got a popup saying “app is not responding… do you want to close it”

Hi Rob,

Was the information any helpful to figure out why its crashing?

rob · April 20, 2016, 10:10pm

I don’t see the crash code at the top in the log at the bottom.

I also don’t know what your print debug function does either. Please add this at the top of the listener function:

print( json.prettify( event ) )

You will need to do a: local json = require( “json” )

at the top of your code.

Then post the log, hopefully with a crash happening.

Rob
