Hello.
You don't have required file in system. You need download BCM43142A0-0a5c-216c.hcd and place it in /lib/firmware/brcm:

sudo wget https://github.com/winterheart/broadcom-bt-firmware/raw/master/brcm/BCM43142A0-0a5c-216c.hcd -O /lib/firmware/brcm/BCM43142A0-0a5c-216c.hcd

Do it, reboot system and recheck again. Chances that Bluetooth will work after that.

It still does not work

It stops here for hours

Download file manually in browser and place it in /lib/firmware/brcm/

[Notadumdum]

It doesn't download

It doesn't download. I tried that first

[winterheart]

It's not a problem in my side. You need somehow download it. Try to fetch https://github.com/winterheart/broadcom-bt-firmware/archive/refs/tags/v12.0.1.1105_p4.tar.gz and get file out that archive.
