If this gets too involved, I'll start it as a new thread in the Nook section. I don't mean to hijack.

How would I check that? Alas, I'm not at home right now to be able to check it.

AFAIR, there is only one device interface plugin for the eInk Nooks. The input plugins nor output plugin should have no effect on the device interface.
There's at least two. Let me clarify. I have a 2015 Glowlight Plus and a Glowlight 3. Both run the same firmware.

When I plug the Plus in to Calibre, my Device icon is a Nook ST. When I sideload with Calibre it sends ePubs only. All ePubs are dopped into the same folder on the Nook.

When I plug the 3 in to Calibre, my Device icon shows the very first Nook (the one with the colored bar at the bottom). It creates folders for the authors and puts sorts the ePubs that way.

On the home screen, on both, you should see your current read and most recently added books. On the Plus, it works as expected.

On the 3, after ejecting, it cycles through all the books on the device, and the books in the top bar are seemingly random. Also, if you reopen the book you were reading, it will choose a random book you were reading.

As an experiment, I've been plugging in the 3 and instead of using Calibre, I've been dropping all the ePubs into a single folder like what happens on the Plus. That seems to help.

What I would like to do is switch the profile for the 3 to use the same profile as the Plus.
