I am having trouble cleaning my ceramic tiles in the kitchen and bathrooms. I have tried cleaners but nothing works. Any suggestions to make them not so dingy?

Krud Kutters works beautifully, look for it at major stores, Home Depot, Walmart or try Zep found at the same stores
Did you try wiping them with a Heavy Duty Mr. Clean Magic Eraser?
I feel like grout is the hardest! It just collects the dirt. When it's needed, I will use a stiff bristled brush on the grout after I have let vinegar soak the grime loose. If your floors are getting super dingy, they may be too porous. You might want to think about resealing them.
Is it possible that a previous owner used the sponge mop floor wax on them?
If so, try ammonia (open windows and use fan for the fumes and make sure the floor is rinsed of any bleach first)
Mop the Ammonia (50/50 with warm water) on the floor and let sit about 10 minutes and then mop and scrub up. That should pull up any wax on the floor.
