[CLOSED] Downgrading Android/Samsung - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Hi,
Hi! I need to switch from a Samsung Galaxy S22 that I've used for a month, back to my prior phone, an S9 (forget about how I ended up in this situation, just trust me on this). How do I manage switching phones in the downgrade direction (as opposed to the standard, which is the upgrade direction)? I need to do it today in order to return the S22 for a full refund.
I'm only planning to use the S9 for about a month (until the Pixel 7 is available), so longer term issues are less important.
Do I just move the SIM? Run Smart Switch with the direction reversed? Wipe the S9 and *then* do Smart Switch? Can I preserve the data and settings I have in my apps on the S9, which are probably more representative of my preferences than the ones on the S22?
I'm on T-Mobile, fwiw.
Thanks!

Bixby 2.0 for the galaxy s9

I've been searching everywhere for info on when the next version of Bixby will reach the so and can't find anywhere..... There is an all floating around for the new Bixby voice but when used it kills Bixby and can't reinstall the previous version, at least not reinstall it and having it working fluently again I had to fully reset so......
Anyone seen any info on when it's likely to drop on the s9?

Is there any chance of getting the bootloader unlocked on Verizon version in future?

IIt seems for now Google have patched the unlock method of Verizon version XL's . If it is now patched is there any hope that a developer would be able to unlock it in unofficial way? Or I am locked for good? Should I keep my hopes up?
We need to put a bounty on this or take Google and Verizon class action lawsuit for this?

Unlocking TMobile oneplus 7t

How do I unlock my TMobile 7t to use international sims. Been on this for the past 3weeks have tried multiple sites but is not working.
Go to twitter's t-mobile help team and tell them you need a permanent unlock because you're traveling internationally.
Tried that way it didn't work

Question Dual-SIM research, help needed

I am trying to determine if there is actually a hardware fuse somewhere that is set for Dual SIM, or if it's purely software, so I need some help from you all. If you are close to the Phoenix, AZ area in the USA, or know anyone who is nearby, and have a Chinese or EU version of the OP9Pro, I would like to borrow the device for a few hours.
If it turns out that nobody lives in the desert, then I would like the help of someone with a Dual SIM enabled device to make a ufs dump via edl and allow me to have a copy of it, roughly 6.5GB. Linux and knowledge of bash required. PM me if available.

Question Regarding Dual-Sim
Hi everyone, I purchased a OnePlus 9 Pro directly from the OnePlus website itself while in the US. I was very disappointed to discover that they removed dual-sim support from the NA variant of the device. I travel between two countries for work...
