Hi,
it could be that the bug has been triggered if you have used an alarm at some point in time.
Have you tried to reflash?
Btw, unless you plan to use it very seldom, i'd rather advice to not
turn it off: 1 battery charge lasts in idle longer than 7 days (with
very new batteries i got it last longer than 9 days).
The energy used when booting up / powering down is worth many hours of
idle.
