While it's possible to use iOS and Android, both are a total pain for anything other than consumption.
Once you've set up Calibre, it would take a matter of minutes to sideload all books back onto the reader, and it would automatically sort them into series and collections. Resetting your reader is then just an annoyance. You should always keep a copy of your books on a hard drive locally and not rely on any store to keep them forever, so you'll have them to sideload again.

If there's a book that's incorrectly formatted, that could cause your issues. I would suggest loading books back onto your reader in smaller batches until you find which one might be causing the problem.
