ESP32-CAM rst:0x8 TG1WDT_SYS_RESET bootloop

I have ESP32-CAM that I plan to use as a simple security camera. I tested the software and it was working perfectly. I programmed it using FTDI programming board with 5V. After testing everything I decided to power it with an old adapter (5V 160mA) I had for some time but when I powered with adapter the power started flickering. When I noticed it I immediately unplugged the adapter but since then I started getting stuck in bootloop. Here is the output I get:

It keeps going like this. I can upload new code without any problems but every code I upload gets stuck in this exact bootloop. Load and entry adressed does not change.

I am using Arduino IDE 2.0.0 on Linux Mint 21 OS. I also tried it on Windows 10 but the results didn't change. I am quite new to ESP32 so I don't know how to debug it either.

Thanks in advance.
