Charlemagne was crown as Roman Emperor, not as Holy Roman Emperor. The title of Holy Roman Emperor emerged centuries later.
Charlemagne was given the title of Roman Emperor to symbolise the independence of the papacy from the Byzantine emperor and from Orthodox Christianity, the religion of the Byzantines. The title of this emperor was actually Roman Emperor. Byzantine and Byzantine Empire are terms which have been coined by historians. They use it to indicate the eastern part of the Roman Empire after the fall of the western part of this empire. The term Byzantine was not known at that time. The empire was called Roman Empire and the emperor was called Roman emperor.
The coronation of Charlemagne was presented as the creation of another Roman Empire in the west, one which was independent from the one in the east. The Byzantines had retaken Italy after the Visigoths had taken it over. They lost some of their territories to an invasion by the Lombards in northern Italy, but they retained a territory in central Italy, the Exarchate of Ravenna. Rome had been under this exarchate an the emperor had been interfering with affairs in Rome and with papal affairs. The alliance between the pope and Charlemagne gave power to Catholic Christendom and independence to the papacy

What caused the conflict between popes and the byzantine empire?
You are referring to the Great Schism, where excommunication began by the Pope Leo IX in the Hagia Sophia in 1054. Tensions between both of the churches began when the Pope crowned Charlemagne the Great of Germany the King of Rome, beginning the Holy Roman Empire in the 800s. The Byzantine Empire considered themselves (and rightfully so, they were the Eastern half that never fell) the true Romans, so they took this move by the Papacy as a diplomatic insult. There were also things that Pope and Patriarch of Constantinople could not agree on, such as the Catholic use of unleavened bread for the Eucharist at Mass. Also, there was the Catholic tradition that priests must be celibate, while the Eastern Orthodox Church allowed them to marry, making Catholics rather angry. Basically, it was a failure to agree on interpretations of Scripture that causes fragmentation in all forms of organized religion and ideology.
