The ball retains its frontcourt status until it touches/is touched by something/someone in the backcourt.
It has one or the other, not both. If the ball touched the floor first, would it still momentarily have frontcourt status before gaining backcourt status? No.

When it touches the floor or the player, frontcourt status is gone.
