"change the extension" trick definitely used to work for past couple of years. Both when using e-mail and when using official "Send to Kindle" apps. I've only use that method when I didn't have access to a computer with Calibre installed so I've then used Android phone + Kindle for Android app (that integrates a "Send to Kindle" option in Android's Share menu) .
Does it work at the moment can't tell you since I didn't test that in last 2-3 months.

I got it

I personally don't use "Personal Documents Archive" / wireless sending of books to my Kindle at all. The only time I've used it in the past is when I had to send some books to a relative that is an older person that lives in different city and she doesn't even own a computer.
I prefer to use Calibre + USB cable and transfer either azw3 (+ apnx for page numbers) or KFX files.

Ah ok , instead I prefer send it through email istead linbk USB

As for book covers: I meant and asked you about the "book cover as screensaver" functionality. Do you or don't you have that option to enable/disable that? In Settings> Device Options. If you have it enabled (remotely by Amazon servers!) it will appear as a fist / top option called "Book covers"... if the fist option is "Device info" then you still don't have it enabled. Just like I no longer have it and I had it before upgrading firmware from 5.14.0.1 to 5.14.1.1 and then doing the jailbreak
.

Before Jailbreak I had 5.14.2 and not had "book covers" on first option, after Jailbreak I had, after did att all, that option and I swype to allow the book covers but the strange thing, after register again my Kindle on Amazon that "book covers" disappears like Amazon didn't allow anymore and now as first option appear just "device info" as you said.


I'm annoyed but not having that option... the PDOC cover thumbnails is not a relevant thing for me since I don't have that problem because I transfer my books via USB cable & with Calibre and those are not marked as PDOC and Calibre generates and transfers cover thumbnail image so Kindle firmware uses it and all is well and nice looking.
ah ok, instead I used to send the converted book( using Calibre) through email so I had all thumbnails on the Kindle library

Thanks again for support I really appreciate it

PS do you know how to or if is there any KOReader plugin to show all books like the Kindle stock library to show all thumbnails instead to search the books into the folder download?
