PW resets furthest read spot when switching books

samadam · 02-05-2013, 11:30 AM

Got a paperwhite. When I read a book, and just one book, the kindle correctly tracks my place in the book. Closing and opening the cover works just fine.

But if I go to the menu and choose another book, then back to menu, the reading location on the first book has been cleared. If I open it, I am started back at the beginning...losing my place entirely.

I have searched, but can't seem to find anything referencing such behavior. I'm using sideloaded mobi files.

For illustration, a YouTube video I made: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zyAiIdrvjAE

How strange. Have you tried restarting the device? If that doesn't work, I'd do a factory reset.
