Tested on 12.10: Same behaviour. (Battery status stays "charged" after removing charging power.)
Discovered a work-around to get the is to unplug from charge for a second or two, then plug in again for a second and then unplug it again before the battery status has returned to fully charged. I also found that suspending and waking the computer also gets the battery indicator working again.

Nonetheless, when I unplug the AC power and use the battery of the laptop, the battery indicator tells me that the "laptop battery is charged" even though it is not fully charged. It happens always, till the laptop shuts down because there is no battery left. In other words, the battery indicator works fine with AC power but it does not when working with the battery of the laptop. I am using ubuntu 11.04 alpha 3 (64 bits) with an HP Pavilion dv6000 laptop. This very same problem happened to me already with the ubuntu 10.04 release (and report the problem in the bug 577557) but a solution was not found. I hope this time I arrive in time to be able to solve the problem.
