iPhone not sending or receiving pictures

Whenever someone sends me a photo, whether it be a screenshot or normal photo, they will not display. It will not even let me click it or download it. I have to ask for the person to send it through Snapchat or Messenger. When sending photos or videos, they will not send through iMessage. They will barely send through MMS, and if they do, the quality is awful. Everyone I send or receive from are iPhone users. I have an iPhone 14 Pro Max, and currently on iOS 16.3.1. They use to be labeled HEIC, but I changed some settings according to Google and they now just say JPEG, as seen in the photos I attached. It also does this when connected to Wi-Fi. I feel like I've tried everything.

Ever since upgrading to OS 17.1.2 on my iPhone 13 I can no longer send and receive photos via text MMS, and I have tons of storage space. I am grateful for any ideas to fix this.

My iPhone also wouldn’t show pic messages.

I tried this and this worked

go to messages turn them all off

turn phone off remove and remove the SIM card.

replace SIM card and turn phone on.

go back to messages turn them back on and it will restart all the messages.

it will take a moment for the messages to start to show.

that should fix the problem hopefully
