[🐛] Bug Report Title - Test Ads are not loading - expo react-native

[jagdish1o1]

What happened?

[Error: [googleMobileAds/error-code-internal-error] Something happened internally; for instance, an invalid response was received from the ad server.]

I'm keep getting same error.

It's been 3 days since my account is created and everything is verified and active in AdMob.

I have no idea what i'm doing wrong here.

Please help.

Platforms

I've tested in a new android device and all test ads worked. I have no idea what is the issue in the old device. It was samsung android mobile. Self closing this issue.
