Travel to us on H4 while recent H1b under Administrative Processing

[usres]

Hi,

Needed some advice quickly regarding entering US.

Scenario is,
- H4 Stamped on Passport
- Change of Status while in US from H4 to H1
- Visiting India
- Appeared for H1B visa Interview at US consulate and currently under administrative processing 221

Questions,
1) Can I request my Passport back from US Consulate?

2) Does requesting and getting passport back holds/stops the Administrative Processing case?

3) What are the chances stamped H4 which is still valid will not be cancelled?

4) If the H4 is not cancelled on Passport can I travel to US on valid H4? Does travelling on H4 affects the H1B under administrative processing and whether it's considered as abandoned?

Please reply asap, appreciate your help..

Thanks
