Moto E 2nd XT1526 GSM enabled - frequency bands question

Hello everybody and thanks for the opportunity.

I have a very specific question that yielded no answers while searching the web.
The phone is a Motorola MOTO E 2nd generation 2015 model XT1526, Sprint branded, originally CDMA capable.

This phone is unlocked and GSM enabled, although I don't know how that was done, that's how it came. I was able to select the Automatic network mode in settings and after checking the box it stopped pestering me about charges that may apply using GSM.

Here is the question that I wasn't able to find an answer to anywhere:
Does enabling GSM actually enable all GSM bands that the MOTO E is capable of, or just the ones that work in CDMA on this specific model.
In other words, did it just switch 800/1900 from CDMA to GSM or did it enable 800/850/1800/1900 GSM bands that the other variants of this phone is capable of?

The reason I ask is that I was able to connect to an AWS network (1700/2100) and the XT1526 definitely does not list that frequency band, while its XT1527 counterpart does indeed.

Thank you very much for casting some light on this issue.
I have only limited time to return it and I need to use this internationally, including 900/1800 GSM bands.
