I have been playing with this for a couple of hours without luck. There are so many variables that I am having trouble narrowing things down. I did a factory reset, the reader updated itself to firmware 4.3.8966, and all was fine. The SD card showed up in Device Information and I could see and open my books with no problem. I then upgraded to 4.4.9298, and immediately went to Device Information to see if the SD card was there. Nope. All I saw was Onboard Storage--no SD card. Wi-Fi on or off didn't matter.

I decided to load a book into main memory, just so I could read SOMETHING until the SD card issue is fixed, but discovered another issue (possibly with sideloaded kepubs only?) where the page number stays at 1 and the time to end of chapter stays at 0 seconds. That was annoying enough that I gave up and downgraded back to 4.3.8966, where everything is working as it should. I can read books on the SD card, the page numbers increment correctly, and time to end of chapter is a reasonable number.

I give up.
