Even if what you say were true, upon syncing my device with my computer and Calibre the "Read Status" column should draw data from the device such as the percentage read. It does not.

AFAIK Calibre Companion is the only APP that can update
Date Read ot '
Read' (a T/F field). Both are custom columns, BOTH had to also be configured matched) in CC.
look at my join date, look at yours... While I do occasional make errors, others with similar experience are know to smack me up the side.
There are 3 ways a custom column can appear:
1) You created it from scratch
2) You 'inherited' the Library (or structure) from a 3rd party
3) You added a book (Copy to Library) from another Library
I Know from use that #3 asks for permission to Include the field
if it does not exist.
