System UI and Android process crashing

[AC Question]

I have an HTC Evo 4g LTE. My phone died (battery ran out), I plugged it in a couple hours later and turned it on. It booted up normally, until it got to a black screen with the error message "com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly" and gave me an option to send or not send an error report. However, upon clicking either of those options, the screen remained black and the error message popped back up, ad infinitum. After letting it sit for a while, thinking it might just be having a slow start, my wallpaper came up but literally nothing else, the error message still popped up, as well as the error message "System UI has stopped unexpectedly." I've tried restarting a couple of times, with the same result each time. Is this something fixable, or am going to have to go to Sprint and have them factory reset it? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
