ok im on firmware 3.03 by sony not the DaRk_AleX one. Im getting LCS from my friend soon. Im thinking i might be able to downgrade if it is not patched. The reason i want to downgrade is to upgrade to around 2.00 or 2.01,2.05,2.06. But i dont know if that is possible to upgrade from 1.5 to around 2.05ish. I want to do this because i want to use the Edison Carter's cheat device for LCS.Also, Will this give me any slight chances of bricking my psp by like downgrading and all that stuff?

I downgraded my PSP a while ago. Whenever you do anything related to firmware on your PSP, there is a partial chance of brickage, but, if you follow ALL the directions in the downgrader and give yourself plenty of time to do what you need to do, you will not brick your PSP. Most people who brick their PSP didn't do it right. Also if you ever are interested in homebrew DONT UPGRADE TO SONY's FIRMWARES, otherwise if you are just interested in gmes and music, dont worry about it.
You should downgrade and then upgrade to the 3.03 OE-C firmware. It can do anything a 1.50 can and much more.
Also If you want to know why PSP's brick, It is because something is wrong with one of the onboard flash drives which are very sensitive. If they get messed up you cannot boot your PSP. This presents a MAJOR advantage if using custom firmare like 3.03 OE-C because it lets you run a recovery program and acess the memory stick and flash drives from USB without booting the firmware. An exmple is when I was trying to change the theme of my XMB I screwed it up and my PSP wouldn't boot but in the recovery menu I loaded the program that flashed and fixed it without booting my PSP

You need to downgrade to 1.50 and the get the Dev Hook for 2.06.
If you downgrade to 1.50 then upgrade to 2.06, it will not have the ability to run homebrew. And the ability to run homebrew in 1.50 is the key for using any cheat device.
However, I wouldn't do that if I were you becaue you will brick your machine if you don't know what you are doing.
