While it may be possible to downgrade your firmware it is not neccessary. As I have mentioned here several times, since 1st October 2003 bluetooth is allowed in Israel so you should talk to local or your operator to find out how you can now get it activated in your T68i.

Here is the official government document that tells you that bluetooth is now legal

downgrading from T68i to T68m firmware can be risky since they use different filesystems... but downgrading to T68i firmware R2B025 is a bit less risky... in R2B025 the Bluetooth wasn't disabled (it was the last version before blocked Bluetooth in upcoming versions)...
