Can I use linux firmware for WICED BT stack?
I am trying launch AP6256 with WICED, WiFi already working and I used firmware from linux dist. Now I would like run RFCOMM, I can download firmware(also from linux) but after it I can't see correct communication, after analizing sources, as I can see, wiced_hci_read_thread expected packet started from 0x19, as I undertand WICED using custom commands for communication. Right?
WICED using own "handmake" bluetooth firmware and other firmware are not suitable for WICED BT?

Hello @DKrasutski ,
Yes, WICED SDK Bluetooth parts will work with standard HCI commands. We do have some vendor specific commands for some specific functionalities like to set sleep mode params, device specific parameters etc.
Unfortunately BCM43456 , BCM4345C5 is not supported here on community. Can you please contact our local sales or FAE to get support on this.
Regards.

I am using AP6256 module, there is BCM43456XKUBG IC (802.11ac, bluetooth 5).
I am using WICED sdk with my custom board, as I know BCM43456 not supported by SDK therefore I took firmware(only firmware) for BCM43456 from linux distr. As I wrote, WIFI working- GOOD!
Now I would like use RFCOMM by WICED SDK(WICED_SDK\libraries\drivers\bluetooth\), I possible to upload successfully bt firmware but rfcomm_dual server_example doens't work.
My question: WICED SDK bluetooth part used standart HCI protocol or it based on custom commands and custom firmware(brcm_patchram_buf) like it:
