I've gone back and forth on whether to post this under KFire forums or here, and finally decided it's probably a Calibre thing. I'm probably wrong.
On my K2 and K3, I would load several new books from Calibre onto the device and they would show up at the top of the home page if I sorted by "most recent" rather than "author" or "title." Simple enough.
Kindle Fire doesn't move a book to the "head of the class" until you actually open it on the device. In other words, out of 1,000 books on board, a book you just now loaded may be the 340th listed book. Another one, loaded at the same time, may show up 257th. There is absolutely no rhyme or reason to it. I can't figure out what date tag the Fire is looking at, but i would really like to see my newest books up top, without having to immediately hunt them down title by title.
Yes, it's a very small annoyance, little to complain about, but I'm just curious if anyone knows how to beat this. Anything I can do in Calibre to tell Kindle Fire that these books are the "most recent." Thanks, and I realize the problem is not at all with Calibre here--it's just that Calibre might help me.
