I've updated the guide. I have determined that you need a diode and not just a jumper in the HDMI power adapter. Please read the guide thoroughly.
Thanks,

Hi PRS,
the label on my diode says IN4007 MIC, is this no good and I need to get the one specified in the guide?
Thanks
That would work.. but the DO-42 package is too big to fit under the cover. You need a DO-35 or smaller. I specced the 4148 because it is super common, but im going to test a schottky for lower forward voltage drop once they come in, but the 1n4148 worked fine for me.
I drove around like an idiot to find those diodes.. where I live there's no store that sells them, holy cow! it's so embarassing!
Luckly I got them from a friend, just 2.. unbelievable..
