This is not because of your phone. MMS is a carrier feature so you’d have to check with them.


You mentioned your carrier is SMART, and I found this which suggests they no longer support MMS: https://www.abs-cbn.com/business/08/30/18/smart-to-kill-mms-support-as-5g-looms

Have you gone down further on that page? You need to look further down to the section called Text Messaging, where the option for RCS and MMS is located. You need to contact your carrier for help with Messaging. Carriers are responsible for how messages are sent.


Also, you're on low power mode and certain features are defeated when you are low power mode.
