I recently went through a change where I manage people but still try to code and I don't enjoy it at all. I also prefer to code rather than manage the politics and emotions of the developers I manage. I hope I can move back to coding full time at some point but we're a startup and I'm the CTO so I'm nervous that won't be the case. If you're able to make the change back I would just tell them you don't enjoy your current role and go back to being a developer. You don't have to be unhappy just to make your team happy. There are others that will manage them just as well and will enjoy it.
