So I have to install both BrcmPatchRAM2, BrcmNonPatchRAM2 and BrcmFirmwareRepo. I think I don't need to install BrcmFirmwareData

Please tell me the sequence if I m wrong.

Thanks in Advance. Peace.

You probably don't need BrcmNonPatchRAM2.kext, but it won't hurt if you install it. You can look at the Info.plist to see if the devices it handles matches yours (unlikely).
 
Just checked, when I copied BrcmPatchRAM2.kext and BrcmFirmwareData.kext to EFI/Clover/Kexts/Others, my bluetooth started working.

But, still no luck with WiFi.
Please help me.

WiFi is not detected in System Preferences.
