Even if using a browser works.That is a terrible workaround for not being able to use, trust calibre companion.
I could experiment more e.g. Force exiting or stopping cc. Each time.
To get a book to my tablet I should not need to mess with tablet browsers and file explorer utilities before I can see the latest calibre edits .that's why I bought the recommended app !
I am 100 percent certain that I am removing all traces of the old book from my tablets filing system before I re fetch it.
Unless you do a complete reset of the tablet or you're rooted and have access and can clear Android's tmp and cache directories, you don't have that guarantee.

My guess, restarting the Calibre server initiated a new session so that managed to fix your caching issue.

On mine, restarting Calibre did nothing (forgot to mention I restarted Calibre multiple times in the process of my troubleshooting). The fact that a fresh FirefoxPortable (Win7) install and my smartphone both got the new version while the iPad continued to receive the old versions points that the caching issue isn't on Calibre nor Windows' side.
