Solved! How do I recover my contacts and pictures from stolen phone.

[ibkb52]

My galaxy s7 was stolen and I'm unable to retrieve my contacts or pics because I don't remember the password. I bought a new galaxy phone, the salesman said he couldn't recover the info without the password even though I bought from the same company as the old one.

the salesman is correct.
