Unable to see any icons at the Bottom Navigation bar-CodePudding

I have been trying to display the icon images on my bottom navigation bar. No matter what I try I still can't get it. I have been trying so many different ways to solve but to no avail. Could someone please help me on this? Maybe I have missed out on something.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<androidx.coordinatorlayout.widget.CoordinatorLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:background="@color/yellow"
    tools:context=".MainActivity">

    <FrameLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="0dp"
        android:id="@ id/fragment_layout">
    </FrameLayout>


    <com.google.android.material.bottomnavigation.BottomNavigationView
        android:id="@ id/bottomNavView"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="70dp"
        android:layout_gravity="bottom"
        android:background="@color/white"
        app:menu="@menu/menu">

        </com.google.android.material.bottomnavigation.BottomNavigationView>

        </androidx.coordinatorlayout.widget.CoordinatorLayout>```

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">

<item
    android:id="@ id/nav_donate"
    android:icon="@drawable/donate_icon"
    android:title="Donate"/>

<item
    android:id="@ id/nav_status"
    android:icon="@drawable/status_icon"
    android:title="Status"/>

<item
    android:id="@ id/nav_history"
    android:icon="@drawable/history_icon"
    android:title="History"/>

<item
    android:id="@ id/nav_logout"
    android:icon="@drawable/logout_icon"
    android:title="Log Out"/>
    </menu>
    ```

The image link below is how the display is as of now. [1]: https://i.stack.imgur.com/EH6AQ.png

Your layout height is set to 0dp android:layout_height="0dp" where it is matching the constraints it is given. I have not seen your display but I'm guessing the frame layout is hiding your bottomNavView. Change it to

<FrameLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="0dp"
        android:id="@ id/fragment_layout"
        app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent">
        app:layout_constraintBottom_toTopOf="@id/bottomNavView">
    </FrameLayout>

 <com.google.android.material.bottomnavigation.BottomNavigationView
        android:id="@ id/bottomNavView"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="70dp"
        android:layout_gravity="bottom"
        android:background="@color/white"
        app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent">
        app:menu="@menu/menu"/>

EDIT With help from @Niaj Mahmud .

Change the material version in your app level build.gradle files from 1.5.0 to 1.3.0
