Did anyone manage to unlock the bootloader after being relocked by installing a RUU ?

You just have to use the same unlock_code.bin that you initially used to unlock the bootloader for the first time. Go to the fastboot mode and use the below command on your command prompt:
fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin.
This will factory reset your mobile so backup your important stuff before you do it. I corrupted my 64GB micro sd-card by leaving inside the phone while unlocking the bootloader. So please be aware of that and remove it while unlocking the relocked bootloader.
Hit thanks if this tip helped anyone.

Already unlocked via HTCdev.
Locked it back for OTA.
I want to reunlock it. Do I have to fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin or can I just oem unlock as it's already been unlocked before?

You can unlock and relock many times, relock with the file sended by htcdev and relocked by: fastboot oem lock

you unlock again then flash stock recovery, then relock, then RUU
not with fastboot oem unlock
but with fastboot flash unlocktoken unlock_code.bin

Yes.

If you still have the unlock token.bin you can flash that directly from Fastboot with the Fastboot commands, you don't have to do all the steps on the htcdev site !
