  1. For android apps.
    AdMob is an ad network from Google. Here is small guide about admob banner for Android (and other): https://developers.google.com/mobile-ads-sdk/docs/admob/fundamentals

So, admob is a custom android view that must be on top of the glsurfaceview.

  1. Can you tell me where to find information and how to add html, flash in desktop application?

Thanks

1 no idea I dont do anything for android

2 probably the best current way is the jfx integration for html and javascript, flash wont work. JFX might only be available on desktop for quite some time.

A possible alternative to JavaFX (I’m not saying it’s better) is Chromiumembedded. As opposed to JFX there’s no jME3 integration for it already in place though.

Yes, there is a pretty easy way to integrate addmob. I already did it.
First you need to do everything as you would for a classic Android app (integrate the jar, and declare the ad activity in the manifest)

You need to override the layoutDisplay method of the JME’s Android MainActivity
Here is what I did


    private AdView adView;

   

    public void layoutDisplay() {
        initAdView();
        FrameLayout.LayoutParams lp = new FrameLayout.LayoutParams(
                LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT,
                LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT,
                Gravity.CENTER);

        frameLayout = new FrameLayout(this);
        splashImageView = new ImageView(this);

        if (splashPicID != 0) {
            Drawable drawable = this.getResources().getDrawable(splashPicID);
            if (drawable instanceof NinePatchDrawable) {
                splashImageView.setBackgroundDrawable(drawable);
            } else {
                splashImageView.setImageResource(splashPicID);
            }
        }

        frameLayout.addView(view);
        if (splashPicID != 0) {
            frameLayout.addView(splashImageView, lp);
        }

        setContentView(frameLayout);
        logger.log(Level.INFO, "Splash Screen Created");

    }

    private void initAdView() {
        // Create the adView
        adView = new AdView(this, AdSize.BANNER, "INSERT_YOUR_AD_UNIT_ID_HERE");//I don't remember how you get an ad unit, but you'll find that on google.
    }


    public void showAdView(final boolean visible) {
        //System.out.println("Ad view requested " + visible);
        // Lookup your LinearLayout assuming it’s been given
        // the attribute android:id="@+id/mainLayout"
        this.runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {

            @Override
            public void run() {
                if (visible) {
                    // Add the adView to it
                    frameLayout.addView(adView);
                    AdRequest request = new AdRequest();
                    // Initiate a generic request to load it with an ad
                    request.addTestDevice("A4FB1D57A3DF433A20FAB5C7846E5C79");//remember to do this (with your device hash) to avoid having your test device banned from ad mob.

                    adView.loadAd(request);
                } else {
                    frameLayout.removeView(adView);
                }

            }
        });


    }


    

    @Override
    public void onDestroy() {
        if (adView != null) {
            adView.destroy();
        }
        super.onDestroy();
///.....
    }

I used this code for a game called stack3d (demo only), the ads are displayed when you’re in the menu that’s why I have a method to show and hide the view
