I don't see 4359 firmware in linux-firmware repo so what are you using?

Hi Arend,
we are using firmwares that come with our specific Sony devices, as we
couldn't find any generic one.
Pushing firmwares around is something that we tend to be careful about
because, as you know, they are usually covered with proprietary licenses
and such.
If anyone from Broadcom can help us by pushing "generic" firmwares for
this chip on linux-firmware, we would largely appreciate that.
Yours,

Hi,
sorry for the lack of answer from me (I've had a lot going on..), but the one Angelo has given you is right. We have to use the files that SONY ships with their stock Android firmware. Could you look into this patch once again?
