Biktorgj is the (abbreviated) name of a developer. See https://github.com/Biktorgj. Biktorgj's main software project is the Pinephone Modem Distro and SDK. This is indeed software (firmware) for the modem used in the PinePhone and the PinePhone Pro (the Quectel EG-25G). See https://github.com/the-modem-distro/pinephone_modem_sdk. That is what people talk about when they say "Biktorgj's firmware".

Biktorgj also releases scripts to upgrade, downgrade, or restore (after switching to the aforementioned custom firmware, if you are unhappy with it) the vendor firmware from Quectel, see: https://github.com/Biktorgj/quectel_eg25_recovery. That repository also distributes copies of the Quectel firmware, but that firmware must not be called "Biktorgj's firmware" or you create a lot of confusion.
