Is that the store/restore bookmark option you are referring to? Does it basically restore the last good backup made by Calibre? I thought that option literally meant restoring only the reading positions of the books and no other data, like the Reading Stats, so I didn't bother trying it out.

Restoring from the last good backup actually did me good as I was able to change my device's affiliate and finally get version 3.8 (I had RakutenBooks as my original affiliate) and get back around 200mb of space, which is a surprise because my Aura had the same amount of books before and after I did it.
