No, your psp is reading it correctly. It displays as corrupt because the pandora battery creator is a homebrew application. Homebrew applications can only be run on 1.50 firmware or custom firmware. I'm sure you already know what custom firmware is about since it seems your on the track to enabling it on your psp.

What you'll need to do is 1 of the folling 2 options...

1. You can hard mod your battery. In this process you'll be opening up the casing of the battery and lifting a pin inside it. If you go this route i would suggest looking into "pandora with a switch" so that you can switch it between normal mode and pandora mode.

OR

2. You can purchase a pandora battery (sometimes referred to as a tool battery) from ebay or datel.

*EDIT*

Forgot to mention, if you know someone who already has custom firmware on their PSP, then you can get them to create the pandora battery for you with the program that you have been trying to use.

1) Download and install PSP Grader v005 Lite by Klutsh.

2) Download Official 3.90 EBOOT and extract the EBOOT.PBP file.

3) Start PSP Grader and connect your PSP to your PC. Make sure to backup your MS because this will format it.

4) Click on the "Load eBOOT" button and locate the 3.90 EBOOT you just extracted.




5) Click on "Booster's Mulit IPL" and on "Format Memory Stick".

6) Now the best part, click on the "Create Pandora Stick" button on the bottom right.

When it's done click OK. You now have a MMS.

As for your battery, you'll have to hard mod it. Which consist of opening it and cutting a small pin. I've never done it before so I can't help you there. You will be able to use it as normal by using the "pencil lead" trick.

If you want you can send it to me and I'll soft mod it and send it back that same day. Soft modding is also reversible and is the best option in my opinion.

To install CFW..

1) Insert your MMS into your PSP.

2) Hold down the left shoulder button and then insert the Pandora Battery.

3) Press X on "Despertar Cementerio v5"

4) Then press X to install 3.90M33. Wait untill it's done and press X to shut down. You now have CFW.

Does your memory stick light flicker at all when you insert the battery while holding the L trigger? If it does, try pressing X a couple times...if you see the memory stick keep flickering after pressing x a couple times then it should be working.

The only other suggestion i have would be to try and manually install the files instead of using an easy installer for your mms.

Aside from those, im all out of suggestions.
