Old

implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:23.6.0'

New

implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:24.0.0'

Then got error when building project

AAPT: error: resource xml/gma_ad_services_config (akacom.test.test:xml/gma_ad_services_config) not found.

Any idea for that?

Answer 1

This worked for me:

1. remove/comment the following part from your manifest

    <!--
    <property
        android:name="android.adservices.AD_SERVICES_CONFIG"
        android:resource="@xml/gma_ad_services_config"
        tools:replace="android:resource" />
        -->
   

2. upgrade to play-services-ads:24.0.0 in your build.gradle

3. sync/build
