Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/jberkel/sms-backup-plus/issues/317

I have all my texts backed-up to GMail via this app. When I attempt to transfer the texts back to my phone from GMail it restores 50 and tells me that 2353 are dupes. These texts are not dupes, as I do not have any dupe text messages. What is causing all of my texts to not be transferred back over from GMail to my Atrix MB860?

EDIT _____
I attempted to sync over my 4G network and it has now synced all of my texts from GMAIL to my phone again, however they are not in the correct order, meaning instead of showing the most recent at the bottom like a normal conversation it shows the oldest at the bottom. Is there a setting to fix that?
