Possible data loss when using widget before starting Shuffle the first time

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Add widget to screen before starting Shuffle the first time
2. Add some tasks/projects etc using the widget
3. Start Shuffle App for the first time
4. Select "Example Entries" or "No Entries"
5. All data added in step 2 gets lost

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Step 4 (called S4 from here on) should not happen, since there already is data.

How to fix this issue?
When Shuffle is started the first time, it should check if there's already 
data. If so, skip "first start screen".

Is there a way to prevent data loss?
Step 4 does force the user to delete his data, but the menu is available. So 
data can be preserved using the backup mechanism.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.7.3 on Android 3.2.1

How to recreate this issue?
1. Backup your data
2. Go to Android settings and delete Shuffle's data
3. If the widget is added to the homescreen, remove it and add it again (needed 
to "refresh" the entries)
4. Add some tasks
5. Start Shuffle
