Admob is not showing up on my emulator or on the device it self. I tried with testing mode on and off. Relevant Manifest data: permissions:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" /> 
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_INTERNAL_STORAGE" />

meta data:

<meta-data android:value="true" android:name="AD_REQUEST" />

The x's are actually my ID.

My whole main.xml:

<com.admob.android.ads.AdView  
     android:id="@+id/ad" 
     android:layout_width="fill_parent" 
     android:layout_height="wrap_content"
 android:visibility="visible"
 android:layout_alignParentTop="true"/>

Hopefully I can get this solved soon...
