Have to use cable once, then after that there is a button in settings->general when iTunes is running on computer and iPhone is on same WiFi network.

Wifi sync will only work on a computer/laptop that is turned on and has iTunes.
What is it your expecting to do via wifi sync anyway?

Leave your iCloud settings alone, it doesn't affect that at all. But the computer with iTunes needs to be on and running.
