I believe that transfer of KFX books has only been shown to work between e-ink kindle devices. I don't know if any other case has been tested and I don't care enough about this to pursue it myself.

In the end it doesn't matter. Copying KFX between devices only works for books that are designated by the publisher to be sold DRM-free.
