Hello,

To use firebaseadmob 2 I updated the googlemobileads sdk to 20. After that I got some error messages regarding firebase encoders, androidwork etc. I updated them all with sdk manager but I started to get:

B4X:
UNEXPECTED TOP-LEVEL EXCEPTION:
com.android.dex.DexIndexOverflowException: method ID not in [0, 0xffff]: 65536
    at com.android.dx.merge.DexMerger$8.updateIndex(DexMerger.java:565)

    at com.android.dx.command.dexer.Main.main(Main.java:249)
    at com.android.dx.command.Main.main(Main.java:94)

after some research on the forum I added:

#MultiDex: True

and now I am getting:

B4X:

    at com.android.dx.command.Main.main(Main.java:94)

I tried to remove sdk file completely and reinstall as described in b4a product page, only updated the mobile ads sdk again which led to other updates againn and same errors again. What can I do about it?

Thanks

You are not forced to use FirebaseAdmob2 / Mobile Ads v20 for now. So unzip the Android SDK and keep using it without updating anything.

It is not yet clear what causes this error: com.android.dex.DexException: Library dex files are not supported in multi-dex mode
It is probably related to one of the third party libraries.

Because of open bidding problems with current version on my app, ad companies suggested to update to latest version of mobile ads. That's why I need to update. Should I disable 3rd party libraries and try that way ? Most of them are internal libraries :/

No.
If I were you, I would personally create a clean minimal project using mobile ads v20. Do this just to see if you can just get that working with absolutely nothing else. It shouldn't take longer than a few minutes integrate...

Tried it now, If I reference firebaseadmob 2 library error starts to happen in a clean project that has no more libraries enabled

If I dont enable multidex, this time firebase analytics causes problem :

    at com.android.dx.command.dexer.Main.main(Main.java:249)
    at com.android.dx.command.Main.main(Main.java:94)

so it means that firebase analytics and firebaseadmob2 cant work together ? Because no other libraires are enabled..

@Pendrush have you updated the resources with B4A sdk manager?

@Pendrush, @tufanv please make a test. Download a new SDK (the two components). Update the recommended items and try again. Make sure to configure the IDE to use the new SDK.
Sure, first of all this is the file you have asked before changing anything.

I can compile without multidex if only firebase admob 2 is referenced ( firebase analytics not selected)
