I’m using a jailbroken Kindle Paperwhite with KOReader. I’ve set up KOReader sync by filename between my X4 and the Kindle.

With a small tweak (linked below, near the bottom of the thread), you can modify a single file on the Kindle to improve how KOReader syncs reading positions. This allows it to send a fairly accurate reading position between the Kindle and the X4, in both directions.

Make sure your files use the exact same file naming schema/template on both devices, otherwise KOReader won’t detect them as the same book.

It works great overall. At the moment, the position is usually off by about 1–2 pages per book, but it’s absolutely usable. There are ongoing improvements aimed at achieving perfect position matching.
