For reference I am on a Samsung Galaxy s24 UI 8.0.
As of the timing of this post, I am unable to make calls through the hey Google command which always has been my method and has previously worked without incident.
Upon asking hey Google to make a call I receive one of the three responses: either it will tell me quote I cannot make calls or quote I am an AI and cannot make calls or quote I am an AI and cannot make calls you will have to call so and so yourself. I am writing so-and-so as a placeholder for the name I requested to call.
I have gone into both the Google app through settings as well as the Gemini app through settings and I could see my microphone and phone contacts are allowed so I haven't changed anything there, then I also proceeded to wipe the cache from both and restart my phone yet I continue to have the same issue.
Is Samsung aware of this issue or is anybody else experiencing this today? Any ideas on how to fix it?
Thanks for always being so helpful with everybody. I truly appreciate your posts and your knowledge and have learned a lot just from reading your responses to both myself and toward other users.
When I use Google Assistant, does that mean I won't have access to Gemini AI for things like creating images Etc? Would I have to toggle them back on and off to utilize those features that I enjoy?
Also how do I switch to Google Assistant?
Sorry for all the questions it's hard for me to keep track with how fast technology is advancing.
Oh it's actually working now but I am going to switch to seamless Google Assistant I just asked AI how to do that and you're correct even the response I got said it will be more seamless with Google Assistant.
Again very many thanks you are such an invaluable person in this forum and I appreciate your responses and your presence here!
From now on, if I have issues I will just toggle between the two because I do like to create a i art with Gemini.
