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.

Anjana
