The problem is that unlike Kindles using a USB mass storage (USBMS) connection where the entire partition is exposed and, if you enable viewing system files on Windows (remove the checkmark from
Hide protected operating system files, you will see a directory called system inside of which is the thumbnails directory. Kindles using a MTP connection do not need to expose the entire partition and so Amazon does not expose the system directory so the Amazon cover bug fix is not able to work.
To fix this, you would have to re-write part of the Amazon firmware which is not possible on a non-jailbroken Kindle. And that fix would need to updated for every new firmware revision.
