Hi. Sorry to bump a somewhat old thread, but this EBOK thing is driving me crazy.
I have a Kindle Paperwhite and recently bought the Humble eBook Bundle.

I downloaded the mobi for each book and using the Java Mobi Metadata Editor I added the EBOK cde type to each. I then added them to Calibre and added metadata. Then, using the Quality Check Plugin I used the Fix ASIN option.

After this, using the same Quality Check Plugin I confirmed I no longer had ASIN or CDE type errors.

I went ahead and transferred the books to my Kindle. From the 6 books, 3 are still tagged as Personal, opening the mobi with the metadata editor shows all fields are correct (501 to EBOK, 103 and 504 to the book's ASIN)

Am I missing something? Has anything changed for the PW that makes the books still be tagged as Personal? Is there any other field that needs to be added/edited/removed?

Thanks in advance for any help.
