The page you're mentioning applies to the standard IOIO and not the mint. The mint has a step-up regulator (as opposed to the step-down on standard IOIOs), which boosts a single-cell LiPo (3.25V - 4.25V) to the required 5V. Having 4.5V on your LiPo means that it is over-charged and probably in pretty bad shape. If it's actually 4.25V or less, then you might have a different problem going on here.
