Regaining the Ring was not the necessary pretext for regaining his physical form, and (debatedly) he had regained physical form at the time of the War of the Ring. The Ring did not contain his soul and mind so much as it did a large fraction of his physical strength and will-bending power, so he was (probably) able to take physical form, but in a much weaker state than when he did possess the Ring. I do not think he could think through the Ring, so in that regard he was probably unable to fully visualize the surroundings of the Ring at a given time.

Hope that helps.

Welcome to the Downs, Celebrian.
