I just ran a bunch of tests in order to make the ads work in my main project. One thing that I found is that you need to export to a new folder and import it in XDK. If you re-export in an existing folder, it will not work, I guess.
Hello,
That should not affect anything to do with ads showing. Admob gets confusing because, depending on what version of C2 youre using, Admob is implemented differently - its all about the plugin. What URL are you using for the adMob plugin in XDK??
These instructions are the best Ive found and do work:

BTW - Preload will make no difference to if an ad shows or not. You can leave preload out and an add will show but wont be preloaded and so take a second or two longer to be served.
HTH.
