Where are you seeing that it goes to the beginning of the book? Are you looking at the stored location id, or when you open the book after restoring the reading status?

It should work for sideloaded epubs and kepubs. I have to admit I don't use the restore very often, but it worked the last time I did try. The last time I did a big lot was just before Christmas as I was changing which of my ereaders I was going to use daily. That was for a about 100 books and they all seemed to be OK.

For purchased kepubs, it should work, but you might never see it. When you open a purchased kepub, it attempts to retrieve the current status from the server. If there is an update, it will prompt you to use this. And during a sync, it will quietly replace the status. I don't remember if I ever tried this.
