Hi Jacopo,

Thank you for the patch.

Shouldn't this be OV490_GPIO_OUTPUT_VALUE1 ?

I'm a bit puzzled by why this patch would improve the ID read issue,
given that it sets GPIO0 to 1, then sets GPIO0 to 1, compared to
previously setting GPIO0 to 1 following by setting GPIO0 to 1 :-) Maybe
it's the additional delay ? In any case, it would probably be a good
idea to perform additional tests after fixing this.
