Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/jberkel/sms-backup-plus/issues/456

I've used the software for years. I recently got the Samsung s4 and tried to restore from my gmail account and it says its restoring 1884 messages however only one comes in stating that they are all duplicates. Has anyone had this issue and how do I fix?

I'm having the same issue. Been trying to read old posts to see if there's a fix but so far I've come up with nothing.

I a getting the same problem on my Galaxy Note 3. also many XOAuth login problems (seems to lock after a certain amount of time). any ideas? where do I send the log file?
specifically If I request 100 SMS to be restored I get 1 and 99 duplicates. Also I don't get anything in the message, just the telephone number. XOAuth authentication will work for the first time, then it will have a login authentication error on subsequent tries after the calculation period.

Not fully restoring on 1 SMS contact. I followed all the FAQ, restoring and archiving details provided, but still can't restore it.
