Whenever I click on an image/video I received in text message that happens....the only way for me to view the picture or video is by saving it to the phone...I have ifiled installed and thought that was the problem but I uninstalled it and that still happened...also sometimes when I restart the phone it works for a few but then it stops again...anyone has any idea how to fix this?

I have never seen this before in all my time with an iPhone(s). I would say try a wipe set up as new, then load back in your data from iCloud. That way you have a clean slate. That seams to fix a lot of these types of problems.

If your device is jailbroken, download iFile from cydia. Close your messaging app from the multitasking bar. Go to /var/mobile/Library/SMS/Attachments. Delete all the folders inside there and reboot the device. (Note: previous mms pictures will be deleted!)

Your mms should show up like normal again. Not quite sure why that happened
