After the OneUI 8.5 upgrade, video chat with another android phone (even another Samsung phone with oneUI 8.5) fails. It keeps saying "video declined". If the other phone tries the same, they get a "video declined" error as well. This seems to work fine before the upgrade as I would make routine video call.

Just a side note, video calls through google Meet do still work however.

It may be necessary to await a carrier settings update, as this is often required to resolve connectivity issues following an One UI system update.

As a workaround I recommend utilizing a third-party application such as Google Meet, as their video features operate independently of the device's core system software.

Did you read my solution before you posted this very long-winded response that has some facts wrong? Since the February security patch, wiping the cache partition is no longer available to most Samsung phones. I use AI chatbots too, then I independently check to make sure what the chatbot is telling me is indeed accurate. It is common for them to hallucinate with the wrong information. Since this is for tech help, it would be a good idea to make sure that the tech help you are trying to advise people with is as accurate as possible. You don't want to be responsible, nor are you accountable if you mess up their devices.

Yeah, summarizing the AI and taking out extraneous, irrelevant information is also a thing.  It shows you actually read what was served up and only included what was relevant to the query.  It also shows you read the actual question from the poster.

They don't get it, most people if it to long, just scroll in by. Bullet points!

It's also interesting that one can always tell it's AI generated content.  The people who straight up copy and paste add no insights or advice of their own.  It's almost as if they don't really own a phone.

They probably have an iPhone. So they can't test it to see if it works on a Samsung phone!
