I know that there are several threads here that discuss this issue, however none of the solutions have made any difference. Anyway, when I plug in my RPi Camera into my B board, I get this error:

mmal: No data received from sensor. Check all connections, 
including the Sunny one on the camera board

The red light on the camera stays on but will not take a picture. I've updated and upgraded everything. I've also reconnected the ends of the camera ribbon to ensure a proper connection but still nothing has changed. This is the same error I get in my B+ board which I also upgraded and updated.

I've tried disabling and then reenabling the RPi camera in the Raspi-Config, switching the pin used for 1-Wire to pin 18 (as seen here), and a few other methods.

Could it be just the ribbon, or is it the camera board itself? Or maybe there is a software workaround?

Let me know if you need anymore information!

The only fix for me was to purchase a new camera.

The "Sunny" connection on the camera board is probably loose. It is the yellow-ish piece of PCB. Try pushing it into the camera board.

Same story. Try completely disconnecting the sunny one. Then reconnect. it fix for me.
