RUU Stuck At Sending - HTC EVO 3D

Hey guys I need a bit of help.
Im stuck running the RUU. Specifically the part right after it says "Erasing User Data" where it says "Sending"
Yes the sending part. The blue bar never does anything and the phone stays in the black screen with the words "HTC" in green.
Once I get the error I can disconnect and do a battery pull and the phone turns right back on.
I have my adb drivers and i have HTC Sync installed.
I tried running the RUU from both the C drive and my documents and the same results every time.
If anyone has a fix and knows what im doing wrong I will appreciate your help.

Which RUU are you trying to flash? I see in your sig that you've got the Virgin Mobile Evo V so I'm assuming it's the 1.13.652.2 version.
When I've flashed the Sprint RUU.exe versions, it's hung a few times at the "waiting for bootloader" stage, especially when I flash it S-OFF with a custom bootloader installed. That is usually resolved by cancelling the Windows app and restarting it.
I've also found that starting the RUU.exe with the phone in the "fastboot USB" mode in the bootloader helps, but it sounds like you are past the point where that would make a difference.
The only thing I can suggest is to restart it with your phone in the bootloader, and give it plenty of time to complete. Normally it takes only about 10 minutes, but I'd give it at least 15.
If all else fails, you may need to get the phone serviced. You didn't say why you are flashing the RUU but if a partition got messed up or you have some type of hardware problem it may never flash successfully.

Yeah I have a Virgin Mobile RUU and I'm flashing it back to stock to reroot it so I can get s-off . I spoke to one of the members of unlimited.io and he said that the s-off tool will fail unless I'm on a stock ruu rom. I have the bootloader unlocked and im on a stock deodex rom but he tells me to ruu back to stock root and then use the tool. Other than that my phone is fine. I'm just trying to change my hboot and a few other things so that I can fix the signal loss problem that the Evo 3D for VM has.
Oh and yeah I've tried fastboot and bootloader. Actually that's the only way I get past the detection. When the ruu says that its rebooting the phone it fails. I have to have it already on fastboot or bootloader

If you are currently S-ON, your bootloader needs to locked to flash the RUU.exe successfully. You can do that with the "fastboot oem lock" command.
The JuopunutBear wire trick requires that you are HTC unlocked, so you will have to unlock again after flashing the RUU but can use the same unlock token as the first time.

Thank you!
It work like a charm right after relocking the bootloader.
Now to reroot, unlock bootloader, and finally s-off

Not true that you must be on stock. I was running meanrom 2.5 when I s-offed

Well it didn't work for me with 3 different roms so I asked for support on their site. That was the response that I got. Now im s-off, boot on eng, and rooted running harmonia rom.
I also changed pri and prl as suggested and now my signal is perfect no calling or texting problems.
