Note 5 - can't attach photos to text messages

I have a Note 5 with 5.1.1. Recently, I have been unable to attach photos to text messages. The only error I receive is "unable to attach file." I have already tried clearing the data and cache for my messages. My mobile data is on and I have a plan with unlimited data. Any suggestions?

Hi, just a thought but it could be to do with the file size? can you try sending a smaller sized file and see if that works?

I am also having this issue. Along with that I can't receive any MMS/group texts.

Any help would be greatly appreciated cause this is really damn annoying!

anyone have any suggestions?

anyone have a fix for this yet? I'm still having this issue.

AC...you still having it too?

UPDATE: Wiped my phone and it fixed the issue.

wiped the phone? is this a hard reset?

i found i can not add attachments on Note 4 using photos but the gallery option allows me to include an attachment - maybe samsung and google aren't talking to each other right now
