Hi y'all, if anyone can give me a quick and complete guide to relock my '' xz premium'' I will give him $40 CAD. This is a Canadian promise! I can transfer money via PayPal or if you have Canadian bank account I can do it via E transfer.

Thank you guys all
Cheers!

Lol. Every' how to', including the Sony website tells you this is a one way process, can't believe you ignored all those warnings.
Having said that, there's no reason why you can't 'fix' it with Xperiafix, everything will be as before you unlocked it.

actually there IS a way to relock the Bootloader.
But the problem is that once you've unlocked it without having the DRM keys saved, relocking it back without using the DRM keys leads to multiple consequences:
1. You MAY BRICK your phone irreversibly.
2. You WILL NOT be able to use the camera
3. The built-in Video/Photo Ehnancer, as well as the Sony 4K enabler MAY NOT work anymore, and you'll, most likely, result in having a 4K panel in fHD-only mode.
4. You won't be able to use your phone for the Daydream VR anymore.

And what is all this for? For being able to install the updates? Lol forget about them.

Can anyone help me. I have an xperia xz premium. Before, my device, had a problem which are can't detect for wifi and mobile internet. So, since it is still under warranty, i sent it to the partner office, which is not sony related company i think. The time take to fix the problem is 2 months. For the first time after the fix, i gone to pick up, and start the phone. It says that cannot check for software corruption, need to unlock the bootlader. And About 3 days after i pick up the phone, the phone begin to be crazy, some buttons such as volume and power button also fingerprint mounted to power button has no respond. Sometimes there are respond but not for long. But before the buttons has no respond, the device fell from my hand which is 0.5 meter i think. But i think, the problem is an unlocked bootloader.
What should i do?

Looking forward.

It's your fault.
Since you've dropped your devices, it is more likely that the fall killed your device.
But that bootloader issue must be the repairman's work.
