@@ -4,6 +4,7 @@
 - 🛠 **Incoming room messages from other participants could be misclassified as normal DMs** — `CONTACT_MSG_RECV` room detection now keys on `txt_type == 2` instead of requiring `signature`.
 - 🛠 **Incoming room traffic could be attached to the wrong key** — room message handling now prefers `room_pubkey` / receiver-style payload keys before falling back to `pubkey_prefix`.
 - 🛠 **Room login UI could stay out of sync with the actual server-confirmed state** — `LOGIN_SUCCESS` now updates `room_login_states` and refreshes room history using the resolved room key.
+- 🛠 **Room Server panel showed hex codes instead of sender names** — when a contact was not yet known at the time a room message was archived, `msg.sender` was stored as a raw hex prefix. The panel now performs a live lookup against the current contacts snapshot on every render tick, so names are shown as soon as the contact is known.
 
 ### Changed
 - 🔄 `meshcore_gui/ble/events.py` — Broadened room payload parsing and added payload-key debug logging for incoming room traffic.
