Hi I am following the steps given for the Admob integration and when i add the setContentView(R.layout.main); in my BT_active_base.java within onCreate getting an error message "main cannot be resolved or is not a field" I have changed the google api to 13 and also clean and built.

It's a lot easier to use the xml version of admob. Where do you want the ads to show (top or bottom)? Are you using a tabbed layout or menus, or something else?

@Raveyd, I am using non-tabbed layout and it starts with a simple menu plugin. The menu displays quiz and html doc plugin. I think we need to implement the xml in main.xml and can you please point out which is the main.xml or should i modify each xml file in the layout folder.

You've got it. Modify each xml file. I suppose you could try putting it in the act_base.xml, but I've never really bothered to try modifying that as it's a container for all the other views. I asked about tabbed layout as you could put the xml in the act_root_tabs.xml one time and have banners showing in every tab view. Also, I'd recommend using ads:adSize="SMART_BANNER" instead of ads:adSize="BANNER" if you're not already, as that'll resize ads depending on device size.

@Raveyd, Thanks for your feedback, I shell try you advice and report it here for reference :-)

No problem @SrikarSree - you should find the xml route fairly straightforward, but post back if you have any issues.
