Let’s get started with some major solutions which will help you to show live ads in the real device:
1. Make sure you have implemented AdMob SDK properly in your app. If you are not sure about your implementation please go through this guide get started with AdMob.
2. If the implementation is done correctly then make sure you are using the AD unit which is created at least 12 hours ago. Admob new ad unit takes more than 12 hours to serve real ads.

4. Make sure to update your manifest if you are using Android Studio. Admob ads need an internet connection to request and show real-time ads on the app. In case you forget to add uses permission in manifest add the following code in the manifest of your android app.
<uses-permission android:name=”android.permission.INTERNET” />
<uses-permission android:name=”android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE”/>

And if try to breaches the rule ultimately it will result in account suspension or permanently disabling your account. (Always test your app the sample Ad units).
6. Sometimes live AdMob ads shown up when you have published your app in google play store.
7. At last, but not recommended remove your old Ad unit and Add a new Ad unit (sometimes there is a bug in the ad unit).
