According to the android docs, these are the following ad sizes you can implement. The problem is, in my small layout, the ad is too big. Even in the smallest size:
Is there any way to get my ads smaller than Banner? It is way to big for the Small screen size.
Thanks,

You should check out the Android-specific documentation on AdMob banner sizes:
Note how the sizes mentioned above are not quite the same as in your own table. BANNER is 320x50, which may already be small enough for small. If not, you'll also see SMART_BANNER mentioned in the last row. I'll just copy-paste that section below too (it's pretty well-described), but be sure to also check out the link above, as things can (and will) change in time.
In your app where you're using admob, the SDK will request whatever size the requesting AdView was instantiated with. If there isn't enough space on the device's screen to display the ad, nothing will be shown.
Please check the links below :
admob adsize for ad height

I have the fill rate close to 100% always and I see the ads displaying on my app all the time. I want to know if Google analytic calculates different from admob? I always see the analytic having more screen views than the number of impression on admob.
They are almost certainly going to be different.
You get one screen view each time someone navigates to a page.
You get one ad impression each time an ad is shown. Typically this will be multiple times per screen view.
Actually, they are different for me too, but they shouldn't. If you display a banner on a search results (100% of the time), your number should be matching since the ad is displayed everytime the screen is viewed (we have no specific conditions). The only way I could see this problem is if the banner is really slow to display and therefore a new search would be done before the impression is counted.. but that would I guess be reflected by the "Fill rates". If the init of the banner is done but the impression is never counted it would be reflected.
In my case I have less than the half of the Impressions in AdMob compared to the Screen Views in GA.
Let's hope these additional informations helps someone figure out the reason behind it.
Thanks
Wondering if there are any android advertisement platform/SDK's that would let me pick the size for the ad? I have attached a screen shot of an app layout and I am interested in replacing one or two of the tiles with an Ad... Is there an android ad platform that you would recommend?
I have been digging into some of the ad sdk's and the closest I could find was the rectangle ad's offered by millennial media. Although I am not sure if they would let me pick an aspect ratio/size that is closest to their recommended aspect ratio of 1.2
I also looked at AdMob but it looks like only support banners or full page ads..
I can confirm that Admob does only offer banner or interstitial ads.
When the application runs, it will stay at a banner page for 3 seconds.
So my question is what size of that banner should I prepare and
is it one set of image is fine?
It depends on your targeting resolution. To get better result you should use multiple images for different dpi and resolution. follow this guideline: http://developer.android.com/guide/practices/screens_support.html
Is there a way to get landscape ads with admob? I've got my ads appearing landscape but they are only about half the width of the screen.
I realise it is an old question but now it is possible to achieve what the OP had asked for. Smart Banners are available, just set the value for your adSize as SMART_BANNER.
ads:adSize="SMART_BANNER"
Documentation Reference
That is the normal behavior because the ads for phones have a fixed size no matter the orientation of the phone, see this link for more information. On a tablet on the other hand you have more options for ads size.
So there isn't much to do , just work with the fixed size you are given and cover the empty space you might get from ads not filling the phone width in landscape mode(if you designed the layout in this way).
I've been implementing ads in an android application, but I wanted to make one that was 200x100px. All I could find were banner ads and none of them could be a custom size, or at least close to the desired size. Are there any mobile ad networks that would provide this? Thanks.

But I am not sure if we can have small adds for high density screens. Which means it is compulsory to keep add width and height to wrap content and the content automatically either takes complete width or is not shown
