Could be, I don't use calibre to upload.

I updated the kim.opf file from the ePub I downloaded and rebuilt it using Kindle Previewer. Now the cover shows in K4PC and on the Fire. I'll upload to my Fire in a bit and test the new build. (EDIT: It works on the Fire.) I attached the updated opf and mobi.

Here are the changes I made:

I changed

Code:
<item id="cover" media-type="application/xhtml+xml" href="cover.html"></item>
to

Code:
<item id="my-cover-image" media-type="image/jpeg" href="cover.jpg"></item>

I removed from spine

Code:
<itemref idref="cover" linear="no"/>
I removed from guide

Code:
<reference type="cover" title="Cover Image" href="cover.html" />
Amazon says not to use a separate html file for the cover.
