Sony Xperia XZ3 DRM key

Im sorry, im really dumb(

 

I experimented with firmware and selected the one that suits me in terms of speed. And I got so carried away that I unlocked the bootloader to install Android 11.
I forgot to do a dump and really regred had it. In the end, I didn't find anything better than the original firmware, but when I returned to it, I noticed that some functions did not work, in particular Google Pay.

 

Can you tell me please:
What other features stop working after losing DRM?
Is there a way to restore or request them?
Is there any fix that will not completely, but at least somehow replace the DRM keys?
I have another Xperia XZ3 that was bought together. Is it possible to recover DRM keys using it?

 

Im sorry in advance for my english, and my stupidity(😭

Can you try to perform software repair by the Xperia companion after that process and check if it will work?

I tried but it didn't help. Says the bootloader is unlocked

Use flash tool and relock the bootloader using the same code as unlock.

This should enable the required security to enable Google pay etc

I tried using the Flashtool by Androxyde program, but when I click on the BLU button, an error appears:

ERROR - Cannot invoke "java.util.Properties.getProperty(String)" because "this.phoneprops" is null

 

then I went the other way. I downloaded the drivers for Xperia XZ3 and "Adb and Fastboot Tools", connected the phone in flashmode mode, and used the command: fastboot oem lock [code], but it also gives an error:

FAILED (remote: 'unknown command')
fastboot: error: Command failed

 

I also tried to use "flashing" in place of "oem", "relock" in place of "lock", with and without code.

Hey @Amir_Ai, I've found this about unlocking the bootloader: https://developer.sony.com/develop/open-devices/get-started/unlock-bootloader/. If it didn't help, try reaching out to the Sony reps, any more digging in different places would just confuse things even more.
