Why is it when I receive a text message with a pic attached, the pic won't show?

[AC Question]

When I receive a text message with a pic attached, the pic won't show.

I have an Android LG-MS770. When I receive a text message with a pic attached, the pic won't show.

That usually means 1 of 3 things:

1) You don't have enough free internal space for the picture. (With 5GB of storage available to the user, you normally should have enough for a picture.)

2) You don't have an app that can show that file's format. (You can see jpg files but without downloading an app for it, you usually won't see aac pictures.)

3) The person sending you the text is on an iPhone and hasn't marked he iMessage to be sent as SMS.
