You will have to restore a backup you made of your phone before it died.


If you specifically are just concerned with contacts and apps, contacts are tied to email accounts, so if you add the same email accounts you will get the contacts from them. And if you log in with the same Apple ID you had on the old phone you can download the apps from the app store.
