We are looking into this issue. Google Admob continues to ignore the fact that Flurry was completely removed in 4.0.25. We will try another option "you may consider upgrading to version 14.0.0". We are working on reintroducing Flurry SDK com.flurry.android:analytics:14.4.0 into the next version of AppYet Template, we hope it will solve the problem.

Estamos investigando este tema. Google Admob continúa ignorando el hecho de que Flurry se eliminó por completo en la versión 4.0.25. Probaremos con otra opción "puede considerar actualizar a la versión 14.0.0". Estamos trabajando para reintroducir Flurry SDK com.flurry.android:analytics:14.4.0 en la próxima versión de AppYet Template, esperamos que resuelva el problema.
I don't know if it works, but for me it makes sense, if you have an Open or Closed Beta version or an Alpha with an old version (less than 4.0.25) it must generate the conflict because the system takes both as tests but goes for the one who has the problem in an authoritarian way. I think the solution because I am trying but there is no answer yet is to delete the trial version and leave only the production version to be published in other words, now I don't know how to do it, maybe uploading a beta version and having it replace the old one so later publish from beta to public.
