      showInter_method(){
        showInterstitial().then( 
          function() {
            // this will resolve almost immediately, and the interstitial is shown without a delay because it was already loaded
            console.log("interstitial showing");          

          },
          function(error) {
            console.log("admob showInterstitial error: " + error);        
          }
    )
      }

test.component.html:

 <StackLayout >
             <Button text="create banner" (tap)="createbanner_method()"></Button>    
             <Button text="load inter" (tap)="preloadInter_method()"></Button>
             <Button text="show inter" (tap)="showInter_method()"></Button>   
   </StackLayout>

Does the demo app's interstitial work?

[fvci2015]

i did not check the demo app

[EddyVerbruggen]

OK, I'll wait for you to check that out then.

[fvci2015]

ok thank you sir, i will back to you after checking the demo app

[fvci2015]

sir no luck. i have run demo app. In testing mode, working fine. but in real time (testing:false) not working showing Error preloading interstitial : 3

[EddyVerbruggen]

Did you Google that error?

[fvci2015]

I don't know what i did mistake. Steps i did: Step1: Deleted node modules folder and run "npm install" Step2: I have removed and added android platform again. In emulator ads are not showing sometimes. But Real mobile device banners ads, intersitial ads showing properly. Finally problem solved. @EddyVerbruggen sir, my device hangs up to 3 secs after intersitial ad. can you suggest when this type of issue occurs??
