Research direction

Reproduce the initialization failure with the steps in the issue, then inspect main.ts, app.module.ts, and platforms/android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml, including the Gradle-generated manifest. Check the debug Android output for the first failure. Done means the app starts and shows its first form with the AdMob banner configuration enabled.

Description

Application compiling successfully, but disappear without any error message after I have add @nativescript/firebase-admob. Application disappear during initialization, there are no any forms of application showed.

What I done before application going to unworkable state:

  1. Change Zone.js from V13 to V14 (with V13 application working perfectly), than install @nativescript/firebase-core and @nativescript/firebase-admob - application still working.
  2. Add google-services.json from new Firebase project I created specially to this project.
  3. Follow documentation https://www.npmjs.com/package/@nativescript/firebase-admob#1-initialize-the-mobile-ads-sdk I have add line
    to my platforms\android\app\src\main\AndroidManifest.xml (this is test value from https://developers.google.com/admob/android/test-ads#demo_ad_units )
    Gradle process modified my AndroidManifest.xml description and deleted this line during command 'ns debug android --debug-brk '
  4. Add Admob.init() to main.ts file (this is Android project)
  5. Add AdmobModule to app.module.ts
  6. Add frame with Banner to one of the form<BannerAd height="100%" width="100%" [unitId]='bannerAdUnit' (layoutChanged)="bannerLoaded($event)" row="1" >
  7. And define variable with the same demo id "ca-app-pub-3940256099942544/9214589741" and event bannerLoaded(event){console.log(Banner: ${event})}

That's it. Now application became not workable. Now Even first form not showed in run-time. No any warning in compilation. No any error message in runtime. All done follow the package description https://www.npmjs.com/package/@nativescript/firebase-admob
