Ubuntu 21.10 ThinkPad X1 Carbon 7 Still exists. The Indicator is stuck at "Estimating...". The logs show this:

The reverse has also happened, where my device ran for hours with only 5% battery left. I also observed that after plugging in a phone or tablet to charge, the power level drops from 100% to 50% instantly after a while and stays there while the devices charge and while "tracker-miner-fs" goes wild... . I had apcupsd installed on this machine, which I purged together with "power-profiles-daemon". After installing "tlp" (plus "acpi-call-dkms"), I still get the messages above.

This leads to a wrong computation of the percentage value of the battery. Despite this the value of "Time to empty" is computed correctly (currently 2.1 h). The values of "Energy (design)" (currently 50.2 Wh) and "Energy" (currently 43.4 Wh) seem to be correct. If this happens only a restart can solve the problem and the value of "Energy when full" seems correct.
