Unless you won't make a clean flash WITHOUT any 3rd party app that's not part of the rom, nobody can help you.
Check your apps 1 by 1,thats the only method.

Install GlassFish app to determine the app who downloads those files if they have a size.

Edit: and tell us which app is causing that to warn others!

Googled and all answers are related to Google!
Most of them are saying those files are google backup files and downloaded by google apps, but the fact is google synchronises backups in background and does not by downloading .bin files!
If you are still running this system, check data usage and see if there is unusual data usage.
Also as above, strogst said for clean flash, i would also suggest you to do same to be safe from 3rd party app/malwares.
Also check your Google account, if it's storing anything in backup.

The same happened with me. I turned off data and deleted all .bin files that were being downloaded. There hasn't been any more unknown downloads since.

I'm running on Stock.

I've been looking for an app that can tell which app has initiated the download, glad to know there's one, could you please point me to the GlassFish app. I looked but couldn't find it on playstore and searching on Xda brings up only the GlassFish governer profile.


TIA:cowboy:
