APX 8000 Flashcode decode

[Opfor2]

I'm attempting to decode a APX8000 flashcode (98XY6g-01s490-2-000000-00000) by using akardam.net Flashcode Decoder R05.03.05 and I get the following error: The submitted flashcode is not in a valid format for the selected platform I'm reading the flash right from the radio so not sure what's going on. Any ideas??

It doesn’t like you? I’m special? I really have no idea.

You are missing a zero at the end. (One digit too few).

I'm inputting it exactly as I'm reading from the radio (98XY6g-01s490-2-000000-00000)

Nope. You're missing one digit in the last grouping. 6-6-1-6-6 is the format; you have 6-6-1-6-5.

In any event, when the last two groupings are all zeros, you only need to decode the original format FLASHcode, which would be 98XY6g-01s490-2 in your case.
