    TWRP Reboot System
  5. Setup Google account now, once done just reinstall the three apps from Google Play Store that are needed to restore your app, such as call logs and SMS history.
Keep in mind.

Do not restore from backup data via system apps. It will break MMS and also Calender synce.
If you restore a bad backup with cached settings in telephony.db in data/data/com.*.*.telephony it can break MMS.
It seems that restoring backups can also break Calendar sync.
Well done my friend because you have updated your Samsung Galaxy Ace 3 LTE to Android 7 Nougat using CM14 (Testing Build) ROM.
