The 13 Direct-To-Cell Starlinks from the Jun 19 Group 9-1 launch continue to raise orbit (magenta), as does one of the seven Ku-band (i.e. regular) Starlinks from the launch (blue).  The 6 others  (in red) are slowly decaying and it looks like they have failed.

Perhaps, this helps explain the continued delay of launch of Group 8-9 from Florida?

Starlink 32119, which failed at launch on Jun 19, reentered over the Lake Baikal region at 2338 UTC Jul 7.
Five more failed satellites from the Group 9-1 batch will reenter in the next week or so.
The S-band DTC satellites (magenta) from Group 9-1 have all raised orbit to 326 or 340 km. One of the Ku-band sats is working ok (blue). The failed Ku-band sats (red) are now below 250 km.

Given 20 S/C were launched, and 13 were direct-to-cell units, this means 6 out of 7 v2 Mini "classic" Starlinks failed right at launch, with one of them having already reentered and the other 5 to follow suit. Interestingly, Group 9-2 shows nothing like this sort of stillbirth failure rate.
