They did change it a while ago, but my quick test yesterday seemed to show it had changed back. I'll have a play over the weekend.

I don't get the 1%, but I had noticed lately that with every sync, it was setting my finished books back to unread. And this factory reset I just did also seemed to wipe out my reading hours as well, which is the first time I remember that happening.
Are you using more than one device? My feeling is that I will finish a kepub on my Glo. Then a few days later it shows as 1%. I think the finished state is syncing to the server but when it syncs to one of the other devices logged into my account, it gets marked as 1% there. Then that syncs back to the server and then my Glo. When reading books they sync correctly. I see the reading percent update as my son reads something on his Glo which is logged into my account. I sometimes remove the book from the device to stop seeing this.

I'd really just like the "mark as finished" counting towards completed books functionality back. I'm dreading having to go in to all my finished books and mark them (yes, I'm anal. I keep my finished books on my SD card. I also reread a lot of them).
I mark the books as finished, but the count doesn't worry me. I treat it as "books read since last factory reset".
