S50 - how to remove search history and text messages?

[BlackDog64]

Hi,

I bought an S50 3D, but don't like it, so wish to sell it on, but want to remove all my personal data from it. I have deleted Favourites, and Recent, but can't see how to delete the search history, i.e. names of towns, citys, etc. Is there any way to do this? I also want to delete the stored text messages which I somehow managed to import from my phone, but can't find a way to do this either, other than manually deleting them one by one, and there's about 500!! Can anyone help, please?

Thanks,

Simon.

In the Navdesk application
Tools then Reinstall software
This will remove then reinstall the software

Thanks, I did do that before, but it didn't remove the saved data.

I did actually find a way to do it, by editing a .txt file, but I can't remember which one it was, and I've sold the unit on now.

Sorry, I'd forgotten about this thread, otherwise I would have posted the solution.
