If you weren't using iCloud for contact syncing then you can recover your contacts from a backup by restoring the device.


Navigate to Settings General Reset Erase All Content and Settings on the device you want to restore.


When this completes and the Set-Up Assistant starts, choose "Restore from iCloud Backup" and enter your iCloud account and password. You will see the three most recent backups for each of the devices on which you enabled Backup. Choose which backup to restore from.
