I changed my passcode on my S7 a few months ago and forgot it the next morning. I have my fingerprint set up, so if my phone died or restarted I would just go on Samsung Find My Mobile, lock my phone via that, and then I would be back in my phone and able to use the fingerprint til the next restart.
I just bought a SIM card and was going to transfer my pictures to it this week (already did my videos) and do a factory reset to hopefully fix the ongoing issue with the passcode. But, of course, I just got the Nougat update and now the Find My Mobile trick doesn't work anymore. I'm officially locked out of my phone. When I lock my phone via FMM, it still prompts me for my device passcode after entering the temporary FMM passcode. Also tried the google version of FMM but that doesn't work, either.
Long story short, I have about a year's worth of pictures on my phone that I really need but now can't get to. Including pictures of my grandmother who recently passed away and a couple vacations. I'm wondering if anyone knows of ANY way to get those pics back.
I'm wondering, last resort, if I brought it into the AT&T store if they can transfer the pics to my old Moto X that I just confirmed I can still get into? Then I could move those to my computer and back to the S7 once it's unlocked? Or if they'd need me to unlock the S7 first with my passcode? I think I'm screwed but I'm hoping there is something someone can offer.
