It might help if you are consistent in the way you use your Kindle; either always use it in airplane mode and sideload books, or always transfer books via wifi.

It might be worth contacting Amazon via their chat facility. (This can be hard to find: go to 'help' and eventually you'll find a 'contact us' option, choose 'chat' which opens a chat box with an Amazon assistant. If you're lucky, you'll get a techie type who knows what you need.) I've found their service to be excellent, just not easy to find.
After setting up my Kindle, I also keep it in Airplane mode. But initially, I had to connect to wifi and register the Kindle to my Amazon account, because otherwise, I could not create collections. And since I have a few thousand books, I really need collections.

If you know of a way to create collections on an unregistered Kindle, please do tell!
