Ah, I guess I was wrong about options then. Thank you. Installed that Reading List Plug-in. It actually works, but then, I don't see the point of it for my purpose. I was thinking how it is done with iPhones and iTunes. You plug-in device and iTunes has an option to sync right away without you clicking "Sync".
With Reading List Plug-in I still have to select [just recently added] books --> click on Reading list icon --> click Add to [Default] List. It will sync then (if you check the "Sync to this device as soon as it is connected"). So after I select all the recently added books I need to do at least 1-2 more clicks.
The same thing without the plug-in. Instead of clicking "Add to Default List" I need to click "Send to Device". So, I don't really see how plug-in helps here (except that it might be easier if I added books multiple different times, so I don't have to remember which ones new - they can be in that list, and as soon as I connect device it will sync).

So, any other thoughts on how to automate syncing of books that are not on the device without me participating?

All I want to do is
1. Add books to Calibre.
2. Connect with CC from my Android.
3. ???
4. Profit.
