hm... well im not too experienced with this but from all the pandaros ive delt with you shouldnt see the screen turn on when you turn the psp on. DOES IT SAY TOOL ON THE BATTERY??? If so then the battery isnt the problem its the memory stick. it should show the green light and thats it. I suppose your using the battery to hack your firmware, not unbrick it?
The problem could be the magic memory stick (which when i bought my third one off the net found that it did not work, so i did it myself on vista using the handy program "Rain mms app")Now i would suggest re modding the memory stick just to be sure its no the magic memory stick.
Then turn on the psp with the stick in first, THEN the pandoras battery and hold up (I think...or maybe it was one of the other directional buttons) on the arrow buttons. if it still doesnt work then i guess you should try and hard mod the pandoras battery. though that should be a last resort as ive broken a battery doing that.
so then.

Have you charged the Pandoras battery yet?

To do this you have to start the psp using only the ac power adaptor, with no battery inserted. Once the psp has booted up, insert your pandoras battery and then you should see it charging.

Should take about as long as a regular battery (because thats what it is at heart).
Then try installing cfw with your mms again.

A pandoras battery should have the same physical properties as a normal battery.

Did you start the psp using the ac before you inserted the battery? You can't just start the psp with the battery already inserted.

How to tell if your battery is pandora:

Unplug A/C adapter, put battery in, if the green power light automatically comes on, then you have pandora!

P.S. make sure the battery is charged.
