Our wl12xx driver already uses the mac80211 stack. The Android driver did not. RFMON always worked on the downstream wl1251 driver - it just wasn't clean or stable. David / lxp fixed that, fixed channel camping and also created the injection patch that's incorporated in NeoPwn.

I am fairly certain that the Hero built modules (which were done back in 2009) do not incorporate any patches that remove the BSSID association for clear-to-send which is one requirement, among many, for live injection to work.

I'm no longer taking sides. Pay the $40 or wait until it goes live - whenever that might be.
yeah you are 100% right, the idea was to compile the compat wireless wl12xx modules for android to get RFMON working, which it does. The BSSID association limitation is obviously still there, as I did no patching, as far as I remember (well 2009) I never claimed that injection is working only RFMON, and if, never that it does work for other APs and not only the associated one.

just my 2 cents.
