java - My AdMob live production ads are not loading: I/Ads: Ad failed to load : 3

Question

I have implemented ads into my Android app.

I added my device to my test devices in the AdMob dashboard, and the showed up correctly.

However, when I removed it for live production the ads did not show. 2021-01-27 22:57:55.616 13048-13048/com.jodastudios.universalskyremote I/Ads: Ad failed to load : 3

I have had AdMob for a long time, so I don't know why it's not working on this app.

I've also tried to used a signed apk, but has not worked either.

Here is my XML code:

Does anybody know how to fix this?
