Unity with Admob and Google Play Services conflict

Question

I have a Unity project with Google Play Services added to it. Everything worked fine until I added AdMob. Now I get the error below. I have already checked for duplicated aar files, but I couldn't find any. (The list of files is also below.) I also tried deleting the Temp folder and reimporting everything in Unity Editor, also without any luck.

CommandInvokationFailure: Unable to convert classes into dex format.

Answer 1

Okay, I solved it.

I found out that you need the same version of every aar file, but I had the versions mixed up. (For example I had play-services-ads-11.2.0 and play-services-basement-10.2.0.)

Then I found out that the Play Services Resolver downloads these files, based on the given plugin's ...Dependencies.xml file. In my case these were GoogleMobileAdsDependencies.xml and GPGSDependencies.xml . I opened both of them and looked for the version numbers in the androidPackage tags. In the first file it was 11.2.0 and in the second, it was 10+. I changed all occurences to the newest version, which is 11.4.0. (I got the info from here: https://developers.google.com/android/guides/setup .)

I saved the files, then the build was successful. Note that this modification must be done every time any of these plugins are added again. (If you reset or just upgrade them.)

Answer 2

1. Check all .jar files, if there is same file.
2. A simple way: delete GooglePlaySever plugin and reset it, note the AndroidManifest.xml do not cover it .

Hope it can help you.
