How to put an Interstital Ad inside an adapter class?

Question

I have a ViewPager in MainActivity that open a new Activity when you touch each image that is inside an adapter.

Does anyone k

Answer 1

you should do like following code.... Declare this code in adapter class at the top... private InterstitialAd mInterstitialAd;

After this you put the rest of the code in your onBindViewHolder()

@Override
public void onBindViewHolder(@NonNull MyHolder holder, final int position) {

    Picasso.get()
            .load(picsArray[position])
            .into(holder.imageView);

    mInterstitialAd = new InterstitialAd(context);
    mInterstitialAd.setAdUnitId("ca-app-pub-3940256099942544/1033173712");
    mInterstitialAd.loadAd(new AdRequest.Builder().build());

    mInterstitialAd.setAdListener(new AdListener() {
        @Override
        public void onAdLoaded() {
            // Code to be executed when an ad finishes loading.
        }

        @Override
        public void onAdFailedToLoad(int errorCode) {
            // Code to be executed when an ad request fails.
        }

        @Override
        public void onAdOpened() {
            // Code to be executed when the ad is displayed.
        }

        @Override
        public void onAdLeftApplication() {
            // Code to be executed when the user has left the app.
        }

        @Override
        public void onAdClosed() {
            Intent intent = new Intent(context, Full_Image_Activity.class);
            intent.putExtra("IMG",picsArray[position]);
            context.startActivity(intent);

///// onAdClosed() method you can put your intent or what ever you want, this is for when you close the add then the intent must know what to do... } });

}

After this you can put the code in your item.onClicklistner method like below..

itemView.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {

                if (mInterstitialAd.isLoaded()) {
                    mInterstitialAd.show();
                } else {
                    Intent intent = new Intent(context, Full_Image_Activity.class);
                    intent.putExtra("IMG",picsArray[getAdapterPosition()]);
                    context.startActivity(intent);
                }

            }
        });

In the else{} you can put your code like intent or whatever you want to do... Hope it will work for many peoples...

Answer 2

I have also faced this very same issue. In your case instead of opening interstitial ads from adapter activity, open it from next activity of adapter activity. Below is my Solution: Consider Activity_B as your Adapter activity.

• Suppose there are 3 activities and opening sequence is as follows:

  Activity_A --> Activity_B --> Activity_C.
  

• Now I want to show interstitial Ad between Activity_B and Activity_C.

• I have first loaded the Interstitial Ad in Activity_A and then call(or show) in Activity_C.

You can do above like this:

In Activity_A i.e. MainActivity add code like this:

public void showme(){

        mInterstitialAd = new InterstitialAd(this);
        mInterstitialAd.setAdUnitId(getString(R.string.interstitial_full_screen));
        AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest.Builder()
                .build();
        mInterstitialAd.loadAd(adRequest);

        mInterstitialAd.setAdListener(new AdListener()
        {

            @Override
            public void onAdClosed()
            {
                //reload interstitial
                AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest.Builder()
//                        .addTestDevice("YOUR_DEVICE_ID")
                        .build();
                mInterstitialAd.loadAd(adRequest);
            }
        });
    }

    public static void showInterstitial() {
        if (mInterstitialAd.isLoaded()) {
            mInterstitialAd.show();
        }
    }

Call this showme() in Activity_A inside OnCreate.

In Activity_C paste below code inside OnCreate:

Activity_A.showInterstitial();

Also, this method doesn't violate any Google Admob policy of interstitial ads as well as banner ads.
