UnityAds crashes the game built with Unity 5.3.1 and running on Android

Unity Services

I have just updated to Unity 5.3.1f1. And now I get crash while running the game with enabled UnityAds on Android.
If disable UnityAds, then the game runs without the trouble.

Unity 5.3.1f1
Nexus 4, Android 5.1.1

Can you provide me with a link to the build in a private message?

Thanks.

I’m having the same problem. UnityAds causes my app to crash a second after launching the app. If disabled, app works fine.

Running Unity 5.3.1f1 on OSX

4

Same issue for me as well. Crash about 1-2 seconds after fir scene loads

5

Anything yet?

6

Same issue here.

I have sent builds to @unity-nikkolai as he asked. I hope it will help to find the cause of the crash.

If I disable stripping, the crash goes away, but, of course, it isn’t a solution for a production.
In my case the crash persists also in Unity 5.3.1p1.

I can confirm that disabling stripping fixes the issues. However, this isn’t ideal.
OSX 10.10.5
Unity 5.3.1f1
Android Device: OnePlus One Android Version 5.1.1

Error occurs on new empty projects that have Untiy Ads.

Another confirmation, stripping fixes the problem but makes the apk larger.
OS: Windows 10
Unity 5.3.1f1

Tested and confirmed on these devices: Nexus 4 (Android 5.1.1), LG V10 (Android 5.1.1), Nexus 5 (Android 6.0), Galaxy Nexus (Android 4.3).

Sadly I reported this issue months ago, it delays my release for 2 months already. Check out my thread.

11

Not sure this is the same thing, for me it started with 5.3.1 (used previous versions on the same game without any issues), and it is affecting all Android versions (4.x, 5.x, 6.x).

found this on google, looks like it is a bug on unity tool. same issue with AdMob Interstitual

It´s fixed in Unity 5.3.3 :slight_smile:
(Issuetracker has been updated)

17

But we still have only 5.3.1. :frowning:

But eat least this now we know this issue was important enough to fix it at all. :slight_smile:

Unity 5.3.1.p4 has been released today, seems like it has not been fixed yet in it (havent tested). I wonder whats Unity 5.3.3, as I can find nothing about unity 5.3.2, and when it is going to be released. Any idea?

19

I am doing this in an empty start scene:
while (!Advertisement.isInitialized)
{
yield return null;
}

@unity-nikkolai Is there anything we could add link.xml until 5.3.3 is released that would circumvent the issue?

I tried UnityEngine.Advertisements and UnityEngine.WWW but had no luck.
