XTL/XTS5000 Motorola XTS5000 Fail 01/82

[tripadvisor]

Hey, I have two Motorola XTS5000's (Model 2 and 3). Today I was updating the flashcode for both (not the first time) using the Depot CPS. Both went well. But after writing the new codeplug for the model 2 something went wrong, the CPS said write successful, but the radio started showing FAIL 01/82 on the screen. I did some digging and tried every possible method to "revive" the radio mentioned on this forum before. Unfortunately, no luck... Basically I tried to rewrite the codeplug multiple times, create new one and write it, write the old codeplug from my backups, use different versions of Windows (7 and 10). Nothing seems to work. As I understand this is not a firmware problem, just the "corrupted" codeplug. Maybe someone had any luck or used others methods not mentioned before to successfully restore the radio?

XTS5000 Model 3 is running R20.50.09
XTS5000 Model 2 is running R19.00.00

The programming cable I use is most likely a cheap chinese one with FTDI USB to Serial converter.

Also, it's strange that I can read and write the radio without any problems.
