Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/jberkel/sms-backup-plus/issues/885

Expected behaviour

One would expect that the app detects the number of items that need to be backed up and then backup them all.

Actual behaviour

In my case the total number of items decreases over time in a backup operation for call log. The backup operation started for 1057 items, but at the end that number downed to 1035.

Steps to reproduce the behaviour

In the attached archive is a recording of the phone screen during the backup operation.
You can see that number decreases from 1047 to 1044.

Is this the same behaviour as described in https://github.com/jberkel/sms-backup-plus/issues/716#issuecomment-368059096 ff?

I'm not sure it is the same behaviour since my issue is with call logs, not sms.
Even if the same logic as described in the comment you referenced would apply in this case, I would say that 22(1057-1035, the counter decreased by this amount) is quite small given i have ~1k call log items and only a hundred or so phone contacts and a few contacts with whom I talk multiple times a day, so there would be a lot more "Multi call log items".
