How do I check for indexing on a Kindle Paperwhite with firmware 5.9.7.?

With older firmware I just set the search for "All Text" then typed random letters into search, but I no longer have the "All Text" option. Instead, if I hit the magnifying glass symbol a search box appears with my recent searches; if I type something like sdfgh, then just underneath it are the words "There are no results found in your library or in the store" (I'm in airplane mode) and an option to "Search Everywhere for "sdfgh". If I hit the latter, this just comes up with "There are no results" but I'm fairly sure something is indexing.

Does the indexing check work differently now? Since updating the firmware, I haven't had a successful indexing check.

How do I check if a book is stuck?

Thanks.
