Thanks Dimitry, I updated the guide. On second look I found out why it the android private namespace socket didn't work for me.If /data/system/wpa_supplicant folder exists the ifname will be built incorrect in wifi.c wpa_ctrl_open() function.
Do you think I should submit the wpa driver that emulates android priv_driver_cmd() (driver_awext.c) to android source review ?
