Android SIP profile locked after reinstall


I'm using the SIP stack in Android 2.3.x+ (actually testing on Motorola Xoom though) and have successfully got a softphone working. However, I uninstalled the app (without unregistering the SIP profile, so it is still registered). Upon reinstalling the app, when using the same profile details (which is a requirement - don't want to change phone numbers/domains every time I uninstall), android says:

only creator or radio can query on the profile

So I can never use that profile again, as I can never become the creator as I uninstalled the app!

This seems like a huge flaw - the user would have to know that he must logout of the service before uninstalling, and if he doesn't, the app becomes useless!

Am I missing something obvious? Can I get access to this profile, or delete it, in a user-friendly way?

Thanks, Ed
