I am facing a strange problem on integrating Admob into my Android Studio Project

Question

So I'm trying to implement admob into my android project. I am following Google's official guide for this purpose (https://developers.google.com/admob/android/quick-start#import_the_mobile_ads_sdk) but I am getting an error on adding this line into my build.gradle(Module app),

implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:17.1.1'

issue description :

All com.android.support libraries must use the exact same version specification (mixing versions can lead to runtime crashes). Found versions 28.0.0, 26.1.0. Examples include com.android.support:animated-vector-drawable:28.0.0 and com.android.support:customtabs:26.1.0 less... (Ctrl+F1) There are some combinations of libraries, or tools and libraries, that are incompatible, or can lead to bugs. One such incompatibility is compiling with a version of the Android support libraries that is not the latest version (or in particular, a version lower than your targetSdkVersion). Issue id: GradleCompatible

My Target SDK is API 14

My build.gradle(Module:app) https://justpaste.it/684d6

mixed version error can be solved by adding all conflicting dependencies in your module level gradle file with same version for all — DB377, Dec 21 '18 at 04:42
If you have some other modules in the application check their versions also, they might differ from each other — Rakshit Nawani, Dec 21 '18 at 04:47

@DharakBhatt myTargetSdkVersion is 28 and minSdkVersion is 14 — saonnet, Dec 21 '18 at 05:07
@DharakBhatt I am getting that error only on adding this line implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:17.1.1' , on removing it there aren't any error and app is running fine — saonnet, Dec 21 '18 at 05:12

replace with this.

    apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

android {
compileSdkVersion 28
defaultConfig {
applicationId "com.bitpix.tales"
minSdkVersion 14
targetSdkVersion 28
versionCode 1
versionName "1.0"
testInstrumentationRunner "android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
}
buildTypes {
release {
minifyEnabled false
proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
}
}
}

dependencies {
   implementation fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0'
    compile 'com.android.support:customtabs:28.0.0'
    compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:28.0.0'
    compile 'com.android.support:support-media-compat:28.0.0'
    compile 'com.android.support:animated-vector-drawable:28.0.0'
    implementation 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.1.3'
    testImplementation 'junit:junit:4.12'
    implementation 'com.android.support:design:28.0.0'
    androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test:runner:1.0.2'
    androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:3.0.2'
    implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:17.1.2'

}
apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'

Just copy and paste error version shown in gradle. For this scenario it is 'com.android.support:customtabs:26.1.0 '.

Implement this line in your gradle file it will solve the issue.

//add this line
implementation 'com.android.support:customtabs:26.1.0'
//change the version to your appcompat support version it will solve the problem
implementation 'com.android.support:customtabs:28.0.0'

compile gradle once. This error will be resolved.

there is number of dependency in support library Bundle, this library have not same version, but you can run without resolved this error. your app run fine.
