I already checked out the other answers on StackExchange, and followed every step of this guide: https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/raspbian/applications/camera.md, as well as the referenced Setup guide.

I see the error related to ENOMEM
, but I double-checked my memory split has 256 (MB I assume) assigned to GPU.
Is my camera defective? How can I tell if I fried it? There has never been any sparks or pop or anything from static discharges. Unless my cat did it somehow...
EDIT: I tested this camera on a Pi 3, Pi Zero W (each with their respective cables), and on Raspbian Jessie and Stretch.
