I am putting ads in my app and I need to support AdMob mediation and DFP (double-click for publishers) ads in my app. I think I did everything right, I included the (new) AdMob SDK, as well as all the additional publisher SDKs and adapters from this url:
https://developers.google.com/mobile-ads-sdk/ad-network-mediation
Then I created a new DfpAdView like this:
final DfpAdView ad = new DfpAdView(this, AdSize.BANNER, /* my ad id here */);
adView.addView(ad);
ad.loadAd(new AdRequest());
When I make the ad request I get the following exception:
09-05 09:16:00.703: E/Ads(10863): Cannot find adapter class 'GADMAdapterCustomEvents'. Did you link the ad network's mediation adapter? Skipping ad network.

AdMob Mediation has different ad id (Mediation IDs) per platform (Android/iOS) and you get this exception when you pass an iOS ad id into an Android DfpAdView.
