I've learned from the following post https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...php?t=292382#3 how to apply a fake registration to a jailbroken PW3 (and KT3, too) that is only used offline (in airplane mode).
BTW: A really cool feature!

@knc1, what a great tip!

The fake registration opens the door to create and manage local collections. Interesting feature for me, as I've roundabout 1000 books/documents stored on my device...

Thus I created 10 different collections - locally only, as mentioned. Works perfect. Feels really like a new device now: Much more clarity in the library view possible.

But here starts my problem: Where is the informaton about the local collections setup stored? I didn't find any traces in the user visible storage, not even in /mnt/us/system/ ...

I ask this question as I want to backup my current collection setup besides the documents themselves, thus being able to restore all of them to a replacement Kindle without needing an Amazon account and/or the cloud.

Any suggestions are welcome!

and

in advance!
