sounds like the hardware is failing causing the overheating and the problems..... i would take it into a repair center and tell them to wait for about 30 minutes and see what it does to them..... if they cant fix it they owe you a replacement and tell them these refurbs are garbage and are always filled with bugs and that you just want a device that works.
