Bug Description
MX4 Ubuntu version:
(I can't take a screenshot due to other issues, but:)
Battery statistic is not working (I hope). I'll describe the graph, and at which points I verified this. While charging tonight, the battery went gradually up from 20-55%, then instantly jumped to 100%, where it stayed for 4 hours. So far, so good. I played a game for a while, (<1hr) and suddenly I was warned at(below?) 10% battery. Rather fast drain, but shit happens. So I close game and quickly connect charger. Battery statistics say 0% at this point. I wait for a while, (5 minutes) and notice 1%. Because I want to take a screenshot, I unplug from charger to plug into usb connection, but phone dies instantly when I pull the plug. Boots normally, and says 75% battery. WTF? Battery stats graph in settings menu seems to be lagging behind on reality, but the real issue is I don't know if the battery is unstable or the statistics package is giving false readings. If readings were false, why did phone power off? It was no normal shutdown, rather hard power off.
How can I supply more data?

Battery statistics are jumpy/jittery at times, with sharp drops/jumps in battery remaining %. Reboot sometimes corrects this. I believe an uneven battery may be the underlying cause, since it gradually got better. Others (Armin Eder) are still affected, and if it returns with me it is probably still a software issue.
