How do I solve the overheating problems with my new Sony Xperia Z1?
Problem was already handled by SONY and they have suggested the solution: "We have investigated the issue with Google Play Services using a lot of battery and we have identified that the root cause of this is related to the latest version of Google Play Services (4.4.52).Until a new version of Google Play Services is provided by Google we urge users to either uninstall the latest update of Google Play Services (might limit use of Google Services like Youtube) or go to Settings > Google (accounts) > Ads > Tick the box for Opt out of interest-based ads and also disable back up of your data by going to Settings > Backup & reset (Personal) > uncheck the box for “Back up my data”. If you are unable to uninstall the update for Google Play Services from Settings > Apps, go to Settings -> Security -> Device administrators and disable "Android Device Manager". Also check the settings in the Play Store so that automatic updates is not enabled as this may update Google Play Services again automatically."Let me know if this solution helps :)

For this, Connect the last two wires and keep middle two wires remain connected. Due to this, your charging will be stop and it will only perform Reverse Tethering operation.This is the one and only solution for this.
