Google will stop accepting new apps or updates to apps that use the old AdMob SDK on Aug 1, 2014.

You’ll need to update to Admob-V2 before then. 

See “Android (6.4.1 and earlier SDKs)” in the link below.

One new feature added in admob-v2  plugin that is ads.height()  It return the height of the ad in content coordinates. This will only return the correct result after calling ads.show()

this ads.height is help to set ads position on Screen.

admob-v2  plugin uses the latest version of the AdMob SDK and only works with build 2014.2264 or later.

So you need to download latest build.

You can’t set the height. It’s read-only.

AdMob V2 also supports preloading with .load() and you can check if the ad is loaded with the .isLoaded() API call.  See:  http://docs.coronalabs.com/plugin/ads-admob-v2/index.html
