Howdy,

I recently installed the SMS timestamp hotfix on my U.S. Cellular HTC Touch (downloaded from HTC; can't post URL due to forum rule). Since installing it, however, my phone shuts off its bluetooth radio every time I hang up a call. Naturally, this disconnects my headset and warrants about a half-minute long process of clicking lots of buttons and rebooting my headset.

I don't send/receive too many text messages, but I do spend a lot of time on the phone. So, I'd like to uninstall the SMS hotfix in the interest of getting the bluetooth to work properly again. Unfortunately, I can't figure out how to uninstall the bloody hotfix. At the risk of asking a really obvious question:

Q: How can I uninstall a hotfix from my Windows Mobile 6.1 phone?

I do run a full nightly backup using Sprite Backup. So, if there's really no way to uninstall this hotfix, I can restore an old backup. While Sprite restore works well for almost everything, it does kill my speed dials and voice dials, requiring that I set them up manually again. Having done that like 40 times in the last year, I'd like to avoid making it 41.

Thanks in advance for your help.

P.S. I see from reading the Sprint forum that you're supposed to enable airplane mode before installing their version of this same patch. The installation instructions on the HTC site for the U.S. Cellular version of the patch, though, do not mention this. So, I had airplane mode off (i.e. bluetooth on) when I ran the install. -M
