Anyone else having issues with receiving pics and video thru text messaging?  Had this phone for 2 weeks and already having issues with it.

Also finding apps it came with are no longer compatible with the phone.

I don't have a 100% answer here. But make sure your data is on. If data is off, there is a chance that you cannot receive MMS on Samsung Message app.

Hi Samsung_Xh9b91r,
Please make sure that the mobile data is enabled on the device to send pictures and Videos via the messaging app. Also, make sure that Wi-fi is OFF. If you are still unable to send the pictures and videos, I suggest you to check with the carrier.
