Not enough space for ad banner

Question

I try to add an admob banner. It works good on all devices with big screensize, but when I try to run it on device with a small screen resolution, the ad doesn't appear.

In logcat I see:

I/GMPM﹕ App measurement is starting up
E/GMPM﹕ getGoogleAppId failed with status: 10
E/GMPM﹕ Uploading is not possible. App measurement disabled

and

W/GooglePlayServicesUtil﹕ Google Play services out of date. Requires 8115000 but found 6599034
E/GooglePlayServicesUtil﹕ GooglePlayServices not available due to error 2

and

W/Ads﹕ Not enough space to show ad. Needs 320x50 dp, but only has 288x420 dp.

Here is main.xml

build app

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 22
    buildToolsVersion "22.0.1"
    defaultConfig {
        applicationId 'com.nesususu.nes.app'
        minSdkVersion 15
        targetSdkVersion 22
        versionCode 3
        versionName "1.2"
    }
    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }
    productFlavors {
    }
}

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(include: ['*.jar'], dir: 'libs')
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:22.2.1'
    compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:8.1.0'
}

I tried to move the ad to relative layout, to hardcode the width, but the result is the same. Devices I tested are Xperia acro S and Samsung Galaxy tab E, both work good. But some phones like Samsung SM-G360H, won't show the ad. The resolution of last one is 480 x 800, so it should have enough space.

getGoogleAppId failed with status: 10

I had same error and I resolved him with this:

You should configure your google-services.json file and download here

For example you can check how to integrate sign-in button here.

W/GooglePlayServicesUtil﹕ Google Play services out of date. Requires 8115000 but found 6599034

You are using play-services:8.1.0 which I think is for sdk version 23. You have targetSdkVersion 22. Info here

W/Ads﹕ Not enough space to show ad. Needs 320x50 dp, but only has 288x420 dp.
