    Did you make a backup before restoring?

    Those should I say SHOULD HAVE been backed up via iCloud like your contacts and bookmarks.

    Did you enable the iCloud photo library before? Turn it on in Settings - iCloud - photos

    You had a backup of the phone on the cloud?

    What about Settings - iCloud - Photos as opposed to Settings - iCloud - Backup

    The pictures are completely different with iOS 8. Photostream is gone and it only shows the most recent (past 30 days) pics. Don't know if this is whats causing the issue. Do you have the pics backed up on a computer or anywhere else?

    i do have a backup on itunes. i installed the phone the other day to the computer and it asked to set the phone as new or set it up with the backup it had there.

    I didn't press anything... i don't want to set it up with the backup and bring all those bugs back to the phone. as long as they are safe on that backup i don't mind. when the iOS8 gets more stable ill get them back on my phone

    HOWEVER, i was wondering if those backups are only there for a limited time?
