I have also overheating problems with Xperia Z2 phone.
Sony's retail store where I bougth this phen told me that this is normal. Sony's phone isn't ment to be record video long time and camera overheats because its so good 
I feel very stupid that I believed Sonys advertising and lines like "Best camera in a waterproof smartphone". How it can be best if it even don't work at summer?
Sad is that Sony has lied to his loyal customers. This may be end of mine Sony products spree. I have had several Sony phones. I thougth to buy Sony 4K TV and PS4, but this will never happen if this problem isnt solved!!

It is very dissapointing what Sony put us through. My faith in the company and it's products has been let down. They may have the innovation, but they have a long way to gain my trust back.
I will miss the camera which i barely used (a few test photos here and there), i will miss 4k which i didnt even bother using, and the underwater feature which i honestly didnt get a chance to test.
I will continue to follow this thread to see if there is a solution or fix or how Sony will act. For now i won't recommend this phone to anyone.
sucky 
still waiting for mine to return from (the first) repair.
How did you return yours (after it wasn't fixable)?

I didnt return one. I returned THREE over the duration of around a month.
The store i purchased from was just as convinced the phone had issues, but when they would send it to the Sony approved service center, they would only update the firmware (which was already up to date).
There was a lot of yelling involved of course. While it isn't the store's fault, my relationship is with them as they are the retailer. They should then raise this issue with Sony. So somewhere in some office are 3 Xperia Z2 phones (mine), and probably from a few others out there that are basically from unhappy customers.
If the phone isnt on airplane mode its great, but the second u swithch on Wifi or LTE or 3G thats it. Expect the phone to last 5 hrs before it shuts down again.

I bought mine through the cell provider (Bell)...don't expect miracles from them 😕
If Sony is unable to fix my phone, I will make a chargeback through Visa, as I have purchase protection. But it's good to hear that there are stores that will accept responsibility for selling this phone, like yours.
