hello,

my S22 did upgrade to android 16 and now it's very laggy 😞
I use this phone to stream live volley (with SportCam App) and after the upgrade to android 16 it become almost unusable (I can achive video at something like 1 or 2 fps instead of the usual 30 fps).
I read samsung did stop OTA upgrade to andorid 16, but is there some workaround for already upgraded S22 smartphones? 
thanks

I did upgrade from "settings / software update", but as far as I know samsung has withdrawn the update due to issues, so it's not availabe now (waiting for the fixes).
