Kindle PW2 sharing and page number issue with side loaded books

blueJ91 · 12-26-2014, 10:35 PM

I bought a PW2 for christmas which updated to 5.6.1 without notifying.

I covert epubs to mobi in calibre portable and put them in the document folder of the kindle.There are a few mobi files which i got via torrents. And a few free books from the kindle store.

When i try and share a goodreads update from a epub-mobi converted file, it shows "Error : There was a problem sending your message.Please try again later."

It works fine when I share from a native mobi file I got from the torrents (this shows as a file with a cover image, the others appear as text overlay in the home screen). But stuff like book info, page numbers are non existent.

The free ebooks work like butter. Every damn feature.

Anyone facing the same problems? I dont want to feel alone here .. haha..
What could be the issue? How do you get around this problem?

Happy New Year to you!
