Help EVO 4g constant reeboot after trying to use camcorder

I am having a problem with my EVO 4g, I tried to use the Camcorder and the whole phone locked up. Now it is constant reboot (very slow) all the way up to the slider screen, no service. But I can't slide the bar to get into the phone, then it just restarts again. I am running stock, nothing rooted.
The only recent things I did was installed the security update, install Beautiful Widgets and I uninstalled updates from Qik, as it was messing something else up, but I don't remember what. but that was last week for all.

Any ideas on how to get it out of this constant reboot? I tried popping out the battery and I reseated the Sd card too already.

Thanks!

you can try and pop the battery out again, and this time press and hold power+vol down. this will take you to the hboot screen. select clear storage. this will not delete your sd card but it will do a factory reset on your phone. after that, then try and reboot.

I just tried this twice, unfortunately it's still doing the same thing. It is very slow, but will eventually make it to the slider screen with no service, won't let me slide the bar, then it goes black and restarts again! :(

any other ideas?
 
yeah looks like you are in a bootloop. unfortunately, there is not much you can do as you are not rooted. i would take it into sprint and let them know that this happened while updating the latest security ota.
