Description
A friend changed their phone number, and registered a new Signal account for the new number. I would like to get rid of the old number in my contacts. However, there is still a "Messaging" entry for that friend with the old number, right next to the "Nachrichten" entry with the new number (that's German for "messages", my phone UI is set to be German). I have found no way to delete the old number from the contacts, because the way Signal adds it, Android tells me this is a "read-only account" and I can't change it. I already tried deleting the conversations I had with that friend, to no avail. Note that the old account is still in some groups I am also in, which we can't do anything about since he no longer has access to the old account, and hence can't leave any groups.
This is frustrating. There should be some way to delete/update contacts.
Device info: Motorola E (2nd gen), CM 12.1, Signal v3.1.1
I wouldn't know what to catch a debug log of to document this. If you need further information, please let me know.
