It sounds like you already did the analysis of the issue:
A project that has already been packaged for QField cannot be packaged
again.
Therefore, when the current project is an already packaged project the
package button is disabled.

If you have lost the main project and want to make this one the new main
project.
You can create a new project with the layers you want to keep.
Or you can try to call this from the python console:
`QgsProject.instance().removeEntry('OfflineEditingPlugin',
'/OfflineDbPath')` (just a guess, completely untested).

Yes, it is possible to work on packaged qfield projects in QGIS in general
and e.g. modify project settings before working on them with QField. In
this case no second package operation is needed.

See above.
