Adcontrol added in my application not appearing in the device?

Question

I'm trying to test an application with Bing Ads. I've added the latest version of the Microsoft Advertising SDK and i'm trying this in a Windows Phone 8 Silverlight App?

This is the xaml code:

   <UI:AdControl ApplicationId="app_id" AdUnitId="adunit_id"
                HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="80" 
                Margin="0,488,0,200"   Width="480" 
                IsAutoRefreshEnabled="True" Keywords="Hotels, Travels, Restaurant"/>

But the ad is not getting appeared in the device?

Thanks in advance.

For all we know your control is sitting beneath a canvas with a non-opaque background... — , Jun 23 '14 at 14:54

You must Have forgot to add capabilities

The following ID_CAP capabilities must be included in the manifest of the advertising-enabled app.

ID_CAP_IDENTITY_USER
ID_CAP_MEDIALIB_PHOTO
ID_CAP_NETWORKING
ID_CAP_PHONEDIALER
ID_CAP_WEBBROWSERCOMPONENT

I did check now, I've enabled all the capabilities you've mentioned. Could there be a mismatch in the version of the Advertising SDK and the project? – Kulasangar Jun 23 '14 at 05:39
yes it can be, but you can listen for an ErrorOccurred event. This event will fire whenever an ad fails to download or display. – Amit Bhatiya Jun 23 '14 at 05:45
So if this gets fired what could be the reason for the ads not getting displayed? – Kulasangar Jun 23 '14 at 07:11
you can get Reason in e.Error – Amit Bhatiya Jun 23 '14 at 07:14
Don't forget that you can't display Ads in the emulator (only the test mode works in the emulator) – Fabrice Jun 23 '14 at 07:29
@Fabrice yeah I was aware of that. And I did test in my device. – Kulasangar Jun 23 '14 at 15:02
