Ok I made the pandora's battery wroked fine, and I don't have a spare battery yet. So to turn it on I would plug it in the ac charger and turn it on from there, it would work, but now just the green light turns on, nothing else, do I have to buy another battery for it to work again?

Did you flash the EEPROM back to the Battery?
Your doing the steps correct but after you start it with the AC Adapter and then place the Pandora Battery in you need to run the Pandora Creator and flash the EEPROM back to the battery (These steps depend on what Pandora Creator you have used).
After that you will need to unplug the PSP from AC Adapter and take out the battery. Then you can place the battery back in and use as normal.
If you didn't back up the battery EEPROM then you will need to choose to create a serial for it. but this option could have side effects on the battery. So use that option at your own risk.

I'm lost, I didn't do any of that but it was working fine for two days, I am going out today, so if I pick up a new battery, would it work?

You had to have used a Pandora Creator to turn the Battery to a Pandora Battery.
Did you Hardmod it?
If you used an application what application did you use?
You said you didn't do any of that.
What didn't you do?
Back up the EEPROM?
You need to help us out here and be specific on how you converted the battery etc. etc.

My firmware before was 3.72 ofw, I took apart my battery and removed the peice you were supposed to, then I downloaded the total newbie easy installer pandora menu and it turned my psp into a 3.71 m33, i upgraded it to 3.71 m33-4 and it was working for two days, then when I went to turn it on, just the green light came on. I charged it and everything and still doesn't work. I didnt back up the EEPROM, I don't know what that is. I don;t really understand that stuff.

You did a Hardmod.
The Battery will remain as a Pandora Battery till you change it back to normal or you buy a new battery.
You should be able to change it to normal by soldering the pin you cut. This can be tricky to do so your best bet would be to buy a new battery and just keep the hardmodded Pandora Battery as a Pandora Battery backup.

The reason your Battery seemed to work normal is because you turned on the PSP using the AC Adapter and not the Battery.
But once you unplug the AC Adapter and power on using the Battery only the Pandora Battery kicks in (Green Led Light Only). This is normal for a Pandora Battery.
As I said the only options you have is solder the cut pin back or buy a new Battery. Don't worry it isn't the PSP itself. When you buy a new battery the battery will work perfectly fine and the PSP will turn on normally.
Just keep the other battery as a Pandora Battery in case you need to unbrick a friends or your PSP. You can also use it to install custom firmware to a official PSP.
It will defiantly come in handy.

That would be normal if you never took the Pandora Battery out.
Lets say you turned on the PSP with just the Pandora Battery in. The Green led Light would come on and files would be written to the RAM. In order to clear those files you would have disrupt the power to the PSP by taking out the Pandora battery and not having it plugged in.
If you never took the Pandora Battery out and plugged in the AC Adapter you would still get the Green Led Light since the power was never disrupted and the RAM still has the Pandora files loaded.
Then you can plug in the AC Adapter (without the Pandora battery) and the PSP should then start normal.

Did you try unbricking it again with your Pandora Battery and Magic Memory Stick?

I deleted the Pandora's battery creator so I am just waiting till I get a hold of my friend's psp so I can put the files on there and put the memory stick back in my psp, that would work right?
