Galaxy Watch

Two years ago I have bought Galaxy Watch4 Classic 46mm (SM-R890NZKASIO). Everything was in function, but after last update GPS stopped to work. Several times I have done by ALL Samsung  instructions: reset watch with and without backup (just to exclude interference of backup data), cleared Cache on all Health and Google Map related applications, turned off and on at ALL location services, reinstalled Galaxy Wearable application (on the phone), checked ALL location permissions on the phone and watch - and still GPS doesn't work!
Samsung doesn't allow de-installation of Health and Google Map software on the watch, neither de-installation of the updated firmware.
So does anyone knows from where to download and how to install original firmware from March 2022 (time when I bought this watch)?

If it could be done, a Samsung service center would have to do it, but likely that firmware is gone now

Truth be told you probably can purchase a new watch 6 classic with trading in your watch 4 on the Samsung Store site for less than getting the firmware rolled back if that's even possible.
