Your DRM keys didn't restored. If bravia engine work so that's not mean the DRM keys are back
Flashtool just restore the TA partition not DRM keys

If you did not backup your ta partition when u first rooted the keys are gone forever.

then what r drm keys for ?
as my be2, xloud, trackid, ota updates everything is working .

Check the service menu: dial *#*#7378423#*#* (i.e. *#*#SERVICE#*#*) and choose 'Service tests' > 'Security'. If your DRM keys are okay, both MARLIN and WMLA will show up as [Key OK]. If they are erased, they would show up as [Unknown Error].
DRM keys are unique for each device, so they are not contained in any firmware download. Once they are erased, there is no way to get them back, unless you made a backup of the Trim Area (TA) before unlocking your bootloader.

DRM restored
Mine was also restored.
Tho the mess over here, on a Xperia Z2, was absolutely a little mistake that costed the phone's life: I changed dpi setting under /system/build.prop and couldnt get the phone to startup properly (bootloop). So to get it connected to the PC, the only exit was to unlock the bootloader and flash some 3rd party recovery mode. By doing so I knew I was gonna lose DRM keys, TA Partition was gonna be screwed... anyway, I had to do it. So I got into the OS partitions, I copied (too late) the TA Partition that was still there, and I could make a backup of not much things... the recovery did some backup, I'll check later its contents. Very complicated to explain details of what I did, but after it, to get the phone back working, I downloaded a brand new stock firmware, which also restored my TA Partition and my DRM keys somehow...
I made a test. I used a tool (Backup-TA-9.11) that downloaded from the phone the new TA Partition. And then I compared it to the old one (using same tool), and I saw that the old one was totally f***d up!
I'm also happy I have my DRM Keys back with the TA Partition working!
Good luck people

Hello!
Sorry for the late response
I now figured out the DRM Keys are not really restored.
At the time I did not know about them, and lost them by mistake.
But I found another post that kinda helped me getting them back: http://forum.xda-developers.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/xperia-z1-z2-z3-series-devices-drm-t2930672

One question, is it possible to have your DRM keys intact with a locked bootloader, and be able to access fastboot?
I know for a fact that in Flashtool, it stated that fastboot features were accessible.
So, this whole time I thought that I might have accidentally unlocked my bootloader until I came across this thread.
I remember when I first got the phone, I was unable to access Fastboot mode due to a locked bootloader, but now I am able to.

-NEVERMIND, just tried flashing XzKernel-26 by alnikki25k, and it didn't boot.

Personally, I can't understand how other people is possible to bring their DRM keys without having TA-Partition. It's all fictive information and I'm totally sure, that no one have restored DRM keys within new ROM installation. And I can bet 100% that it doesn't matter - is it STOCK or CUSTOM ROM. Your DRM Keys aren't going to be restored within new ROM. It's impossible. The only way to get your DRM keys back is to restore your own TA-Partition (flashing any other person's TA-Partition will definitely brick your device), where DRM keys are located at.
Locking your bootloader doesn't restore your DRM keys. All you can do for now is to temporarily get some functions working only with some MODS, which are located somewhere in XDA.

my drm keys are lost after re locking BL. now i want to unlock it again but it fails every time i enter the unlock code.. is this because of lost drm keys? any assistance please?

It may not succeed in one time.
Plaese try again 3 or 4 or more times.
If you still fails, please let's me know results of commands below.
Code:
adb shell cat /data/local/tmp/giefrootlog
adb shell cat /data/getrootlog
adb shell ls -l /data/local/tmp/scsi_wait_scan.ko

Root with the bootloader intact, that is amazing! Will this also work on the WiFi 4G version? That's the one I have and I don't want to mess it up.

Just scroll one line up in general forum you have the post for the SGP621 (LTE version) here
enjoy!

Oh, I missed that one, thanks!

Does it void warranty? As the DRM keys and still there and how to do you restore the DRM keys

Copy apps in SDcard.
If you already gained root access, can you copy all apps to SDcard? What apps you guys recommend? Thanks in advance.

Does this method erase all data in internal card?

Has anyone got this working with SGP612 yet? (32gb Wifi only version). I have't seen this mentioned anywhere, but it should be similar to SGP611?

I'm a bit confused at step 12 : first thing to do when following CubicU07 instructions is to follow ... lowtraxx instructions...
If we follow CubicU07 thread, we first have to back up TA, but that was step 11 of this current thread. sso I guess we should follow lowtraxx instructions, but this one specifies that it won't work for SGP611, and sends us to this thread. Back to square one, then.
My guess is that we have to follow CubicU07 thread, no matter what he says first (so, I won't follow lowtraxx instructions).
Could you please be more specific for step 12 ? Do we finally have to use Advanced stock kernel, PRFCreator, SonyRICDefeat, ... as described in CubicU07 thread (which also involves unlocking BL) ?
Thank you.

Where can I get the firmware from step 3?

It's written : install XperiFirm and download it with this software.

Hi Ryder, why do you need relock the bootloader?, for send to repair in warranty maybe, but I think relock is not an option for send to repair in warranty.

Better root-kernel and patch drmfix to boot.img (build by yourself)

THIS IS JUST SHARE HOW I SUCCESS BRING BACK MY SONY APPS WORK LIKE A CHARM, DRM REALY FIXED
I realize that since Oreo, when I flash drmfix.zip shared in this forum I dont realy get drm fixed, just get camera working, not for other apps like X-Reality, Super-vivid and Sony Services (for loging in Xperia Longe) and mybe other related with sony feature.
After some research, evidently Oreo move some files from boot.img to system partition, this files in important for patching so that drm fix work. I followed tutorial in Xperia Z5 thread and get an idea for try to aplicated for XZs and its work like a charm.
I don't own anything for this tool so you can just go to this thread and follow every single instruction in there.
What I get after followed that method :
- dm-verity (disabled) > now I can do debloat system apps
- Sony RIC (disabled) > as above function
- force-encrypt (disabled) > /data fully decrypted, no red message anymore in TWRP
- DRM Loader Patched to boot.img > Flashing drmfix.zip now will bring back Sony Apps Feature (X-Reality, Vivid Mode, Xperia Account Services)
Credit goes for him : serajr
But if you are helped by this information then don't hesitate to click thanks button...
THIS METHOD SHOULD WORK ON LATEST OFFICIAL STOCK ROM [ G823X_41.3.A.2.234 ], AND MAYBE WORK ON NEXT UPDATE
Last thing.... DO WITH YOUR OWN RISK

[Help] A list of DRM Keys

Hey guys need a quick help!!
Trying to see this used X Compact still has all the DRM keys. I have:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WIDEVINE [Key OK][Active]
CKB [Key OK][Active]
HUK: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
PRODID_AID: XXXX
OTP_LOCK_CONFIG: XXXX
OTP_LOCK_STATE: LOCKED
AUTH_ENABLE: XX
DEVICE_ID: XXXXXXXX
FIDO_KEYS: Provisioned
Factory Reset Reason: MasterClearConfirm,2019-08-xx xx:xx:xx GMT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Is this all I should have for a DRM intact, bootloader locked device?
I notice that not all entries have [Key OK][Active] next to it.
Does that mean the device has been unlocked before and keys are gone now?
And, why does it say something about Factory Reset?
Also, I don't quite know the meaning of some entries (well, if not all).
What does the numbers mean following:
PRODID_AID:
OTP_LOCK_CONFIG:
AUTH_ENABLE:
Although these might not have any significance.
Well, what do you think, guys?
Any help will be much appreciated!!

I'm pretty sure that 'ok' in the first 2 lines, plus fido keys provisioned, means that you're good.
Not sure what all that other stuff means ...

I also found some screen shots in this threads:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/x-compact/how-to/backup-ta-drm-using-dirty-cow-t3514482
but I wasn't sure if those are "after" they've unlocked the bootloader, and since some of them shows FIDO "not provisioned"...
Anyway, I appreciate your input!
