    Hi.
    Lately (?) I've noticed text messages aren't sorted correctly if some are sent with the country prefix and some are not. At the top of my list of SMS' I have the same number twice, once with +47 and once without it.

    Thanks for the report. Join actually tries to normalize the number prefix thing but apparently it's not able to in all situations yet. Is the rest of the number totally the same regarding spaces or other possible characters?

    Yes. No spaces. Everything else is the same. Just the prefix. Would it be an idea to just make a static list of all country prefixes and disregard these when sorting and grouping?

    That's what I'm already trying to do. Will have to dig deeper and find out what else it could be.

    Strange, really. There must be some kind of flag resulting in the grouping...Tell me if you want to run some sort of debug code on my phone.
