Description

**Describe the bug**
Some user chats (direct messages) show some random uuid? instead of the username or matrix id

**To Reproduce**
Upgrade / Install element when previously riot-android was used.

**Expected behavior**
The name/matrix id of the user talking to

**Screenshots**

**Smartphone (please complete the following information):**
- Device: various
- OS: Android 10
- App version and store 1.0.4 F-Droid

**Additional context**
This only happens to some users, it might have to do with a user not having a name set, so maybe it is just a missing fallback to matrix id?
