I don’t see any information about the camera in dmesg.

I need more information.

cat /boot/config.txt
dmesg | grep libcamera
dmesg | grep arducam

dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d,cma-512


I also tried with

dtoverlay=arducam-64mp

instead of the dtoverlay line written above

dmesg | grep libcamera and
dmesg | grep arducam come up empty

@RcTomcat

Have you complied with the following commands?

if you complied commands:
both is need

dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d,cma-512
dtoverlay=arducam-64mp

I did all of that already. Drivers are instelld, both applications as well. Been playing around with the config.txt. I had both in there → just reinserted both lines, still no camera being detected.
I just ran the commands again, the driver install added the
dtoverlay=arducam-64mp again. No luck.

You can contact my email([email protected]).
I can help you solve problems remotely.

So i switched out the cable, had a working camera for about 5 minutes while I was trying to get a higher resolution than 1920x1080
.
Now “no cameras available” again…
I got no idea what is going on here.

Don’t worry, you can contact me to see if there is a problem with the hardware.
