I have two ESP32-CAM, both of then was working perfectly untill some time ago.
Now, everytime that I upload a sketch to the modules, I get the this error message which is recurrently appearing here:
[E][camera.c:1049] camera_probe(): Detected camera not supported.
[E][camera.c:1249] esp_camera_init(): Camera probe failed with error 0x20004
I don’t know what is going on, because it happens in my two ESP32-CAM modules and they were working perfectly here in the last time I used then.
The labels n the ribbon cable in both OV2560 cameras are:
XRZ00D1 -V240 V2.0 1903
I tested here my ESP32-CAM modules (conecting to the Wi-Fi, without initializing the camera) and they are working fine.
I tryed many things here, including powering the ESP32-CAM with an external 5V source, but nothing worked so far.
Is there any way to test if the camera is working (without the ESP32-CAM module)?
This camera is making me mad..
Any ideas?

Hi.
What code are you trying to run on your cameras?
Have you tried the CameraWebServer sketch from the library examples?
Sometimes the camera ribbon in not connected properly to the board. You may need to disconnect and connect it again.
You also need to press the RESET button several times until it initializes the camera correctly (I have no idea why sometimes this happens and others doesn’t).
Regards,
Sara

The code I uploaded to it is on this topic: https://rntlab.com/question/esp32-camera-c1249-esp_camera_init-camera-probe-failed-with-error-0x20004/
I’ll try pressing the RESET button. This trick I never tried before.
Thank You, it’s a light in the en d of the tunnel. I’ll let you know the result!

I tried here, again, to run the CameraWebServer code. Also, Disconected and reconnected the ribbon cable of the camera and pressed reset many times.
Thre results continue the same: “camera_probe(): Detected camera not supported. “, Even after many resets.

How are you powering the board? I found that using 5V to power the board fixed it in my case. Also, try removing the camera module and installing it again. The cable can sometimes get dirty and re-inserting it in the connector can help.
Eduardo Alvim answered 4 years ago
Yes, I only power my ESP32-CAM boards with 5V (with USB and external source). Aldo, I disconected and reconected the camera several times. I really don’t know what happened, because this issue is happening in my TWO ESP32-CAM modules (AI Thinker).
But thank you anyway! If you guys something, you can count with me too!
