    Photo stream photos only remain in iCloud for 30 days, allowing enough time to download to all of your devices.  When you connect a new device to photo stream it will only receive photos from the last 30 days.

     

    Restoring the backup of your iPhone 4 to your new phone will transfer photos (and videos) in the camera roll, as well as text messages, app data, settings, apps and other purchased media, ringtones, etc.
