Anyone here received an I140 approval from abroad (through EB1A or NIW) then enter USA with an O1A with intention to undergo AOS rather than consular processing? How did you wait to apply for AOS to avoid USCIS finding fault with your O1A?

You need to consult a lawyer, but generally speaking approval of an I-140 will not impact your ability to travel on O-1 status. Once the I-485 is filed traveling without an AP could lead to abandonment of the I-485. Keep in mind that O-1 unlike B status for instance is not strict no immigrant intent because the regulations are silent on the issue. Still, better to discuss with an attorney who has dealt with this more recently.
