The author is still displayed (firstname lastname) on the reader.

If I check the metadata for books in the library they have author (fn ln) and author_sort (ln, fn).

My program only changes an attribute of those files, the modified date, it doesn't change metadata or other config files, it's weird that your author name resets to (fn ln) on the reader after you use it.
I have seen complaints of the 650 author sort not working properly in other threads and the latest ones are supposed to work correctly. Do you have the latest firmware? Also, did you check to see if the books were sorted by author last name? maybe the display is different for the 950, but it still sorts by author last name on the 650 even if it doesn't display it.
