Are those stored on your SD?

[andrei1989]

nope...i specified from phone to pc, some folders crashed my explorer and some moved very quickly...i really hope is not my sd and it is "just" my phone. i am still waiting for it to charge above 50% to repair it and i will tell you how it goes

[_alexdon_]

Ok,I also hope it is not your SD.

[andrei1989]

strange, but the repair did it for me, but i still think it is a BIG issue with the xperia z1 software

In this case,you should contact xperia and tell them about this:

Since the repair fixed the problem this indicates that an application or process was not operating correctly and causing too much power from the processor which would have been generating the heat.

given the fact that i didn't have many apps only the very used ones: facebook, messenger, email and a few other and i used safe mode and still got heated up really quick results that was the software and not some apps installed on the phone

[andrei1989]

after repairing the phone i just instaled yahoo mail and went well untill i did the updates to facebook, google+ and other few preinstaled apps and it started to heat up again. this is begining to sound like a screwup from one of these apps

here are the apps and maybe someone can find the bug:

facebook

google play newsstand

google+

twitter

xperia lounge

yahoo mail

and i also instaled my sbh 50 app and super backup which went well until the forced update

PLEASE HELP
