Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

The same case is here, but with Lenovo ThinkPad BT keyboard KT-1255, and Evoluent VerticalMouse BT mouse, and Dell BT m ouse.
I suspect that it maybe due to one of kernel updates, because I remember that it worked correct. Will try to rollback kernel...

[Yura (ykuchinskiy)]

extra info, it looks like problem has been introduced after linus kernel 3.13.0-11.

on linux kernel 3.13.0-11 everything works OK, but on kernels 3.13.0-27 thru 3.13.0-36 system cannot detect BT mouse/keyboard battery charge %

I did not test kernels between 11 & 27, will check if something available in the repo to test...

It looks like 3.13.0-24 works OK as well, so will look at delta between 24 & 27 releases... to see if I can fing something...
