Hello!
I've been searching for an answer and I cannot find it. And, because TB doesn't seem to have a forum I'm asking here...
I'm backing up things with TB every time I update/change ROMs. But last time I didn't want to restore everything and forgot to restore the call logs. Now I have a backup with the old call logs and the new call logs. Is there a way to restore the old call logs without deleting the current ones?
Maybe I could backup the current logs too, restore the old ones, make a backup with another app, restore the new logs and do an incremental backup with that app and then restore everything... But I don't know of any app that can do incremental backups to call logs.
Thank you!
i think LIFE SAVER app can do wat u require....

Thank you! It worked!
..though, I didn't have the patience to check every call.

Would you be interested in knowing how to merge an old sms database with a new one?
What happened to me is that I was running 2.1 and wanted to upgrade to FreeX10 beta4 (2.2).
So, I backed everything up with xRecovery and Titanium, then upgraded.
However, before I could restore the texts with Titanium, I received a lot of texts.
Then when I tried restoring the old texts, I lost my most recent texts.
Which led me to figure out if it was possible to merge old texts with new ones.
I've now figured out how to merge the old texts with the new and have them properly dated and in order.
The only thing I'm missing is the attachments. Which is looking impossible right now.
Use SMS restore and backup it will merge the two automatically without losing any messages. What i mean by merging is first restoring the new backup using titanium and then making a backup using SMS restore and backup in Archive mode, do the same for the old backup too. And you will have a single file containing all the backup
i have personally tried it.

After all of that hard work...
I haven't tried your way but I'll take your word for it.
Made a full backup with TB after moving to Exynos 7.2 and now I'd like to restore just my Call log from my stock rom. Tried restoring "[CONTACTS/CALLS] Contacts Storage" but that wasn't it. Help??
AFAIK, Titanium won't restore your call log. You'll need another app to do that, like this...

I have previously restored data, most specifically Sms logs, when going from Cognition to Unnamed. But when going from unnamed to serendipity, I can't get Backup pro, Titanium Backup, or Appextractor to restore my sms logs. It's pretty frustrating. I can get most of the apps and system data to come back, but not SMS. If anyone can recommend a method or program I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks
SMS Backup and Restore by Ritesh Sahu
In general, you should not restore system data when changing ROMs - it will almost always break.

Thanks Entropy, I appreciate the response. Ended up using that program, which I was familiar with but had problems with it in the past. I found a good combo to be Super Backup and SMS Backup and Restore. Super backup handles the contacts and call logs great, Backup and restore works great for SMS, as long as you don't have too many messages .
I try to avoid restoring system data, accept for certain programs.
I use Call Logs Backup and Restore (same guy as SMS Backup/Restore) for my call logs, and for contacts I just keep everything synced to Google.
Anyone had any luck transferring call logs from cm7 to cm9? I tried mybackup root and titanium backup but every time i do that contacts crashes when i start it.
Seems like call log backup and restore works, you just have to restore them, delete them and restore them again with the app, strange but it works.
i made the mistake of relying on lookout to back up my call logs. found out the hard way i couldn't restore
Hi guys, I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 (SM-G900H) International Exynos version. I want to install a custom ROM, Lineage OS. I've done my research and there's only one thing left that I don't have a solid grasp of, how to perform a backup. Lemme explain. There are some things that I wanna backup, but I don't know the most efficient way. They are my text messages (SMS), my call log and my memos. I'm not worried about my contacts cause they're synced with Google, i could always re-download my apps and I'm not worried about losing my progress in my games, as for my media, they're all on my SD card, so I don't have to worry about those too. Could you tell me how to backup and restore those things I mentioned earlier ? (SMS, call logs, Memos) By the way, I'm rooted and have Titanium Backup installed.
Thank you for your time and help.

After reading the final backups is call logs, sms, memos right...
Then those three can be backed up as xml format...
Go to the menu of Titanium Backup and choose backup data to xml option and backup the things you wish to....
So that they can be readable and also restorable..
But I think you cant backup memos if you are using S Memo to backup...
So for safety backup S Memo app if you are using s memo with tb..
Finally before going to install Lineage Backup the ROM in TWRP for safety.......
