About the decoding of the encrypted message:

Spoiler: Hope and Fear

They don't actually decode the real sequence. The good people of Voyager are tricked into believing that they do, by an alien called Arturis. He holds a grudge against Voyager and is up to no good with an elaborate plan.

 

[Hermiod]

^Not quite accurate.

Spoiler: The Message

They do eventually decode the real message, but it's just a load of star charts, details of engineering updates that might be useful and a message from Starfleet hoping to see them soon.
