My wife has an unlocked AT&T Samsung S5 on Tracfone.
Lately she cannot send or share photos in text messages...nor, apparently, receive photos. She doesn't use the phone that much but it was working satisfactorily up until about two weeks ago.
When she attaches a photo to a text message she may or may not get a message saying that the file is being compressed. And she may or may not get a message saying that the photo is being converted to MMS or SMS. But a thumbnail of the photo appears in the text message.
When she sends it, however, it never completes.
A text message sent to her that contains a photo prompts her to download the photo--it doesn't appear embedded in the message.
We have wifi and she is using wifi when this occurs. My phone (unlocked Verizon Samsung S6 on TotalWireless) sends a photo fine over wifi (in the same house).
We are relative newbies to the smartphone world and retired. These are the first real smartphones we've had.
Can anyone point me in the right direction to solve this problem?
