Restoring my iPhone4 from a 3GS backup doen not bring contacts and messages along. Anyone know of a fix

Hello!  I've seen a lot of threads about restoring via iTunes but haven't found my particular situation yet.  So hopefully someone can give me some insight into my predicament.  I updated my iPhone 4S with io7 and my wifi broke.  So I got a new iPhone 4S with ios6 loaded on it.  I want to keep ios6 until Apple can figure out how to fix the wifi/bluetooth chip running hot.  I backed up my phone right before I swapped to the new 4S.  But when I try to restore from backup it won't let me because the backup I did was with ios7 and it wants me to upgrade my ios6 to ios7.  Obviously I don't want to do that only to have my new phone break again. 
Options I see is pay for some 3rd party software that can restore my contacts, texts, etc. Upgrade to ios7 and pray it doesn't break again.  Get a new phone.
But I don't like any of those options.  I want to keep ios6 until they make me upgrade it. 
Anyone have any ideas???
Apreciate the help in advance.
