If you did a reset (restore) using itunes, it removes the jailbreak. Try re-jailbreaking it.

In my opinion you better start fresh.
Best way is to put the iPhone in DFU mode:
1. Connect your iPhone to PC via USB cable
2. Turn it off
3. Hold down power and home buttons
4. When you see Apple logo, keep holding down HOME button but release POWER.
5. iTunes will tell you the iPhone is in recovery mode.

Now you cand reset your iPhone using iTunes.
It will install latest iOS.
Then you can jailbreak if you want
