Android Central Question

I upgraded from Samsung Galaxy 4 to LG V30. Prior to switching phones, I backed up my calendar. On Google Drive I can see my calendar backup under apps. It says com.android.calendar last backup: Feb 11. I have my phone set to update app data as soon as it's installed. However, I cannot see my calendar appointments on my new phone nor my Google calendar. Is it possible to get the events from my old calendar through my backup?
 
Set the V30 to the same Google (not gmail, Google) account as the S4 was on. If you were syncing the calendar on the S4, the V30 will sync it. (If you weren't, it can't - com.android.calendar is the app, not the data.)

Go to Google Calendar to see if your calendar is backed up (use the same Google account as the S4 was on).
 
For some reason my Google calendar doesn't show my backed up calendar from the S4. Is it possible only the app is backed up and not my actual tasks/events?
