The books now start with the cover. I remember seeing some people on reddit complaining that the books didn't start with the cover. Well, it's good to know that this is no longer a problem.

On my Fire, the cover doesn't appear until after I open and close the book. The thumbnails remain after download is removed.

It boggles my mind that big N publishers put in the grunt work to create the page number info but don't bother with the easy to automate navigation info. |

If so I am not sure how you would ever have seen covers. PDF personal documents never had them, and now neither do Print Replica personal documents. If they're from Amazon then that's some issue of theirs, has nothing to do with the improved support for personal documents. Yes, if you convert to Print Replica and side load the covers should be there. If I remember correctly you need to create a KPF with Kindle Create and then KFX Output plugin to generate Print Replica. Maybe if enough people request, they will generate cover as part of conversion. We could hope anyway. Even without fancy covers it would be nice to see first page of some report or whatever you are sending. Last edited by tomsem; 10-12-2023 at 08:06 PM. |

I am currently using a jailbroken Kindle Paperwhite 3 on firmware version 5.14.1. Is there a way to spoof the firmware version to a more recent one, such as 5.16.2.1.1, in order to receive .kfx format files? Any thoughts?

The results of changing the build number may be bad. It can cause problems with the interaction between the device and Amazon's servers since they will treat the device as having different capabilities than it actually has. Amazon has added new features over time to KFX format since it was first released in 2015. Some books can only be read in KFX format on newer firmware because they contain features that are unsupported on older firmware and will not display correctly on those devices. In order to make that work Amazon falls back to delivering an older format (MOBI or KF8) if the device cannot handle the KFX version of a book. If you force Amazon to deliver KFX instead you will probably wind up with something unreadable on your Kindle. |
