Freeze and reboot issue with CM11 and CM12 - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

I've been trying to install the newer CM Roms , and after researching I was able to set up new partition layout, update firmware, and use Captain_Throwback's modded TWRP. However, the few roms I've tried have given me the same exact issue: The OS loads up, it goes to the main screen, I can unlock screen, go to settings, etc., but after about 10 seconds, the phone freezes and restarts. This will happen infinitely.
This has happened with at least:
cm-11-20141112-SNAPSHOT-M12-jewel
cm-12-20150101-UNOFFICIAL-jewel
cm-11-20150101-NIGHTLY-jewel
I believe I've updated the firmware and setup the new partition style correctly, because:
Captain_Throwback's 4.13.651.4_jewel_stock_rooted_Sense5_Android4.3_odex
ROM works just fine.
When I install I first wipe Dalvik, Cach, system, data, internal storage, and Android secure.
Sometimes I just do a factory reset, still doesn't work. I have also tried the format Data option (erased everything on internal memory)
After it finishes installing I have done with and without Dalvik Cache wipe, same results.
Here's some info about the phone, if you need anymore info I'll gladly provide it! Thank you!

Having same issue
I have experienced the same thing recently. Latest CM nightly on HTC EVO 4G LTE ("jewel").
When the trouble began, I was on the last-stable CM build. I would get an infinite splash screen and high temperatures on the device itself (hot to the touch, that is).
I only recently flashed to the latest, thinking it might change my situation. The phone would then boot fine, but, exactly as described above, freeze after maybe ten seconds.. The screen would blank to black, excepting the status bar, no response from buttons.
I doubt there's any correlation, but the last thing I had done on the phone was installing "youMail" voicemail app and trying to get that working. Again, not not to say there's a correlation, just throwing it out there in case someone sees something that I cannot..
I just wanted to throw my voice in and subscribe to the thread.

Click to collapse
First, try updating to the newest TWRP (2.8.7.0). It has Captain Throwback's work done on it. It is the newest, and in my opinion, best recovery for this device. Secondly, if you're trying ROMs, use the ones I have built. They're all linked in my tag, and they are tested. For the moment, use the 5.1 builds, because the Marshmallow ones won't get you video yet, though we are making progress...
