Make sure you restored your iCloud backup correctly. To do this, you have to erase the phone and go through the setup screens and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud backup and follow the prompts, making sure you choose a backup from before you restored your phone to restore to. Your phone should only be connnected to wifi when you do this, not your PC or iTunes.
