A general question about the OTG USB

Hi everybody.

Let's assume that we have two devices -device#1 and device#2- connected through an OTG cable. The Micro-A plug is connected to the device#1 and this device (initially) becomes a Host and a "power provider" while the Micro-B plug is connected to the device#2 and this device (initially) becomes a Slave and a "power consumer". Let's suppose that the device#1 -by its nature- is not supposed to be the Host. So, the HNP protocol takes action and changes the role of these two devices, i.e. the device#1 becomes the Slave and the device#2 becomes the Host. My question is the following: does the device#2 (which is now the Host) become also a "power provider" (or the device#1 is still the "power provider" due to the OTG cable's specific connection)???

Thank you in advance

George
