:helpme

your history will be gone but you'll be able to retrieve your contact list...

isn't there a way to save the complete history?

not that i know of...

Maybe this can help before you reinstall:

shows how to backup your history and contact list

yeah did that already.

Just did the uninstall and I was offered an option to keep the history and it actually still is here now. Lets see if this is a bit better though.
