Just so i'm clear here is what i should do step by step...

turn phone on
plug to usb on pc
leave on charge only
turn phone off
while still plugged in push vol down and power
when the skateboarding androids screen comes on start the ruu on my pc?
is that it? have i missed anything?
Did some reading, if you are still having the problem here is the solution that worked for me.

Boot the phone into the bootloader (when the phone is off hold vol down + power on) when you see the 4 options, and the androids at the bottom skateboarding plug in the usb, select fastboot and then start the RUU from the PC. The first time I ran it, it told me my battery was below 30%, I reran it and the second time it ran all the way through. I took some time, and it went back in forth on the percentages (from 60 back to 57) made me nervouys, but it completed.
