Hello Lad,

I debugged this further, and I have some news:

It looks like the 'write 0x2 to SYS_CLTR0' does not fail itself, rather 
the sensor refuses to accept a power up.

I tried to read the register before the write, and it reads 0x42.
Then, I tried to write 0x42 back, and it works fine.
So, I do not think there is a problem with i2c communication.
The only problem is that the sensor refuses to power up (accept the 0x2 
into the SYS_CTRL_0 ), due to an unknown (to me) reason.

If the power up is performed at the initialization phase, it works.

I also tried to capture with v4l2-ctl, and the result is the same.

Which of the init configuration set of registers your test is using?
It may be that it does not work in a specific config .

The datasheet which I have does not claim that the 'power up' might fail 
in some circumstances.

Thanks for helping,

Eugen
