Also, how to restore TouchWiz screens & the app folders that I had in apps list ?

Restore call log (yellow color) data only

Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
I don't find call log item.

I only got green, red & while color data

Nevermind, I found the TouchWiz Home option which restored the screens & app folders, still looking for call logs

Latest version of TitaniumBackup ? Yes it is latest.

Anyways, I restored Call logs by restoring LogProvider (which was in red by the way, also TouchWiz home was in red)

Thanks for your help

Funny thing is that although I restored config (all config entries were in green), yet the lock screen configuration weren't restored

@dr.ketan My apologies, didn't know where else to ask U this ... somehow after the most recent update Titanium wouldn't recognise the back up folder on the External Card and when I wanted it to detect the folder, it would show two, one raw and the other actual one, I tried choosing both but it wouldn't recognise any backed up apps, they just wouldn't show in the Restore apps option, then I asked it to move the files from raw data folder to the actual one, and now I have nothing in the folder, completely empty. Could U please suggest something that I could try, even a data recovery tool perhaps? Thank U.

Make sure there is no word in search (filter) if so clear it. Sometime you tried last time searching something and still it was there. Click on filter symbol to check
I did Dr Ketan, there wasn't any word in the search filter, in fact when I go into my SD card and click on the properties of the folder, the size it shows is 0, I also tried going into the folder, it's empty. I know U always warn about data loss and suggest backups and I took Ur advice on board, but this is catastrophic.

In case U wish to know why I didn't bother writing to TB people and am imposing on U instead, knowing Ur depth of knowledge I approached U instead and U will see on the app page, the TB developer doesn't address concerns and many are left waiting and fuming, so I thought it prudent to ask for Ur help and advice.

It's weired to loss data on ext SD card unless something went wrong.
All the rest of the data and files on the Card are intact .. I tried restoring nandroid backup, doesn't work, just wont boot, then I tried using nandroid backup to restore, said Passed, but the app just wont start, keeps FC ... a question if I may, the nandroid manager app shows two backups (of the nandroid backup that I made), one starts with /mnt and the other /storage ... both same size, same date and time ... is there a difference between the two? Maybe I should have tried restoring from the other instead which is why the app wont start?
