Happily.

There are two variants to the test. Both require kitkat or higher and the existence of an SD card (which I don't have).

The first: you have rooted your device, disabled the Kitkat SD card protections, and checked the CC advanced SD card option found in CC's Other Settings section. In this case you should be able to write the backup file anywhere on the SD card.

The second: you check the box in CC but haven't disabled SD card protection. In this case CC will let you navigate around the SD card but it should fail to write the files except (perhaps) in the magic /Android/data/com.multpie.calibreandroid directory.

If after reading the above you are willing to go ahead then PM me the right email address where I should send the APK. I have the one you gave me for the beta program but I am not sure that is the one you prefer.
