WHITE BALL WITH ADMOB – ANDROID STUDIO & ECLIPSE FILE

Introduction

Welcome to this comprehensive tutorial on how to use the White Ball with AdMob in Android Studio and Eclipse. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of setting up and integrating the White Ball with AdMob, a popular mobile advertising platform, into your Android application. The White Ball is a powerful and customizable mobile app that allows you to earn rewards and points for watching videos, completing offers, and participating in other activities.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, make sure you have the following:

• Android Studio or Eclipse installed on your computer
• A basic understanding of Java programming
• A White Ball app downloaded and installed on your Android device
• A AdMob account created and configured

Step 1: Setting up the White Ball App

First, you need to download and install the White Ball app on your Android device. Once installed, launch the app and create a new account or log in if you already have one.

Next, go to the app's settings menu and enable the "Debug Mode" option. This will allow you to connect your app to the AdMob platform.

Step 2: Creating a New Project in Android Studio

Open Android Studio and create a new project. Choose "Empty Activity" as the project template and give your project a name.

Step 3: Adding the White Ball SDK to Your Project

Download the White Ball SDK from the official website and extract it to a directory on your computer.

In Android Studio, go to the project structure and create a new folder called "libs". Move the White Ball SDK files to this folder.

In the app-level build.gradle file, add the following lines to the dependencies section:

dependencies {
    implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:20.0.0'
    implementation 'com.whiteball:whitewidget:1.0.0'
}

Sync your project with the gradle files.

Step 4: Configuring the AdMob AdUnit

Create a new file called "adunit.xml" in the "res/values" directory and add the following code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
    <string name="adunit_id">YOUR_ADMOB_AD_UNIT_ID</string>
</resources>

Replace "YOUR_ADMOB_AD_UNIT_ID" with your actual AdMob ad unit ID.

Step 5: Integrating the White Ball SDK with AdMob

Create a new Java class called "WhiteBallAdManager" and add the following code:

import com.google.android.gms.ads.AdRequest;
import com.google.android.gms.ads.AdView;
import com.whiteball.whitewidget.WhiteBall;
import com.whiteball.whitewidget.WhiteBallConfig;

public class WhiteBallAdManager {
    private AdView adView;
    private WhiteBall whiteBall;

    public WhiteBallAdManager(WhiteBall whiteBall) {
        this.whiteBall = whiteBall;
        adView = new AdView(whiteBall.getActivity(), AdSize.BANNER, "YOUR_ADMOB_AD_UNIT_ID");
        adView.loadAd(new AdRequest.Builder().build());
    }

    public void showAd() {
        adView.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
    }

    public void hideAd() {
        adView.setVisibility(View.GONE);
    }
}

This class manages the AdMob ad and shows/hides it as needed.

Step 6: Displaying the Ad in Your Activity

Create a new Java class called "MainActivity" and add the following code:

import android.os.Bundle;
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity;
import com.whiteball.whitewidget.WhiteBall;

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
    private WhiteBall whiteBall;
    private WhiteBallAdManager adManager;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        whiteBall = new WhiteBall(this);
        adManager = new WhiteBallAdManager(whiteBall);

        whiteBall.setAdManager(adManager);
    }

    @Override
    protected void onResume() {
        super.onResume();
        adManager.showAd();
    }

    @Override
    protected void onPause() {
        super.onPause();
        adManager.hideAd();
    }
}

This class displays the AdMob ad in the activity and shows/hides it as needed.

Step 7: Testing the Ad

Run the app on your Android device and test the AdMob ad. You should see the ad displayed on the screen.

Step 8: Configuring the White Ball SDK

In the White Ball SDK configuration file, add the following lines to the "ads" section:

{
    "ads": {
        "admob": {
            "ad_unit_id": "YOUR_ADMOB_AD_UNIT_ID"
        }
    }
}

Replace "YOUR_ADMOB_AD_UNIT_ID" with your actual AdMob ad unit ID.

Conclusion

That's it! You have successfully integrated the White Ball with AdMob in your Android app using Android Studio. With this tutorial, you should be able to earn rewards and points for watching videos, completing offers, and participating in other activities using the White Ball app.
