Try doing an ECU reset as per FAQ. It might be the electrics going wibble after changing the battery

If the fuel pump is priming, and you are getting fuel, it's not the immobiliser Yes

My immobiliser had a fit, and as a result it would turn over, but pump was not priming.

I would guess at a loose/dodgey earth. (Probably on the starter motor)
