Is it under the bluedroid Android HAL still possible to get the RSSI of a paired or connected Android device?

I am trying to get the Bluetooth RSSI of a paired device in under one second. I found some interesting approaches on this site here targeting this topic. As far as I can conclude getting the RSSI under my circumstances is not possible with the Android SDK.

But I still have - because of some papers - some hope left, that it is still possible with the NDK to use some native code of the new bluedroid HAL stack.

I am using original Samsung Galaxy Nexus I9250 for my university project.

So can someone please tell me, if it is still possible to get this value in this or a similar way?

And if yes, how it can be roughly done, because I am pretty new to C and the Android NDK.

Thank you!
