here on my v34 the issue is 100% repeatable... I thought it was a known one, isn't it?
sometimes I use wifi to check emails before going to sleep and can happens I forget to reboot my gta02, so the following morning I find my battery almost empty or phone in power-off state (it shuts down itself when the charge is under certain level)

(IIRC there is nothing in the v35 changelog about this topic)
