Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/jberkel/sms-backup-plus/issues/671

I've seen similar mentions in here but no actual solution that I could tell. Basically, when I restore my SMS some of them are restored as separate conversations/threads. The Android Messenger app shows the received SMS under the contact name however the sent SMS has an obscure name as follows:

=?ISO-8859-1?Q?xxxx=A0xxx=A0xxx?= (x denotes the contact phone number)

This happens with only about 3 of my contacts. I don't think country codes matter as other conversations that are kept together without any problem have me sending an SMS without the country code and receiving an SMS from that same contact with the country code. Is there a reason this would happen?

Further to the above, I forgot to mention that I am using a Nexus 6P with CM13.
