Yes, power is needed for any mhl/HDMI device. More features are enabled in the updated kernel as well.Can anyone confirm if MHL is working? I can't get it working with a Galaxy S4 adapter.
Nevermind, it's working. The outlet I was plugging the charger to didn't work, so yes, tablets need power for the MHL to work.
