None of my sideloaded books are loading. All are azw3 format. Upon "loading" I get a white screen which takes about 10 seconds before I can do anything, then it thinks I'm at loc 1, 100%, and when I swipe up the indicator is at the end of the book. Every page is empty. I did a factory reset and copied a handful of books over (calibre via usb) - the same result. Paperwhite 12th edition (2024) - signature edition.

Edit: converting to mobi sorted it. So... don't install this update if you enjoy sideloading azw3 files.
