The book inside the calibre library does not automatically have it's metadata updated, your changes are just part of the GUI database. The metadata in the book is updated when the book is either exported from calibre using any of the following calibre built in features: Send to device, Save to disk, Content server or e-mail -- or -- To update the book in the library database itself you can use the modify epub plugin or the polish feature.

Additionally you can leave the title alone and use the Metadata plugboards to update the Title metadata on fly during a Send to device operation.
