I have a raspberry pi 5 and a Camera module 3 camera_auto_detect=1 In config.txt And its setup as shown in the images Whenever i try to use libcamera-hello —list-cameras i get “no cameras available” Is there anything i have missed like drivers etc? I’ve done sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get full-upgrade

Solved: i just got the displaycable instead of the cameracable oops

Try taking it out and cleaning with iso propyl alcohol

Just curious, why did you connect the camera to J4, "Cam/Disp 1" rather than to J3, "Cam Disp 0" ?

just tried out both since neither was working

Then I agree with <@1071178789939331253> and inspect the flex cable for bends and also I think you should try to reconnect the connector in the Raspberry Pi as it seems to sit high.

And if that is not the issue I would do a warranty claim on the camera module and flex cable.

<@796000224690307072>i just happened to order the wrong cable haha it's a display cable not a camera cable
