I have a ViewPager in MainActivity that open a new Activity when you touch each image that is inside an adapter.
Does anyone know how to show an ad before these new activities are loaded?
As you can see, I have an adapter called CustomSwipeAdapterCovers and it is responsible for opening the new activities, and in MainActivity show how the ad is loaded, but I don't know how to implement ads on non-activities.
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
private static final int START_LEVEL = 1;
private int mLevel;
private Button mNextLevelButton;
private InterstitialAd mInterstitialAd;
private TextView mLevelTextView;
private ViewPager viewPager;
private CustomSwipeAdapterCapas adapter;
//=================================
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
// Create the next level button, which tries to show an interstitial when clicked.
mNextLevelButton = ((Button) findViewById(R.id.next_level_button));
mNextLevelButton.setEnabled(false);
mNextLevelButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View view) {
showInterstitial();
}
});
// Create the text view to show the level number.
mLevelTextView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.level);
mLevel = START_LEVEL;
// Create the InterstitialAd and set the adUnitId (defined in values/strings.xml).
mInterstitialAd = newInterstitialAd();
loadInterstitial();
// Toasts the test ad message on the screen. Remove this after defining your own ad unit ID.
Toast.makeText(this, TOAST_TEXT, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
viewPager = findViewById(R.id.viewpager_main_xml);
adapter = new CustomSwipeAdapterCapas(this);
viewPager.setAdapter(adapter);
}
//=====================================
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_main, menu);
return true;
}
@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
// automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
// as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
int id = item.getItemId();
if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}

if (mInterstitialAd != null && mInterstitialAd.isLoaded()) {
mInterstitialAd.show();
} else {
Toast.makeText(this, "Ad did not load", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
goToNextLevel();
}
}
private void loadInterstitial() {
// Disable the next level button and load the ad.
mNextLevelButton.setEnabled(false);
AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest.Builder()
.setRequestAgent("android_studio:ad_template").build();
mInterstitialAd.loadAd(adRequest);
}
private void goToNextLevel() {
// Show the next level and reload the ad to prepare for the level after.
mLevelTextView.setText("Level " + (++mLevel));
mInterstitialAd = newInterstitialAd();
loadInterstitial();

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.
