does the 8a global M1908C3KG have lte band 2 or not? - Xiaomi Redmi 8A Questions & Answers

I have searched a lot and many sites say it does (https://www.frequencycheck.com/mode...-32gb-m1908c3kg-xiaomi-olive-lite#frequencies)
others say it does not:
https://www.devicespecifications.com/en/model/80c65232
the thing is I have not been able to get LTE signal in Mexico (movistar) which uses B2, I only get umts/Hspa+
and the icon is a H+
So not sure if I have not configured it properly , I have it setup as LTE PREFERED, seems to me as if it does not have B4, how can I be sure?

Boot images patched with Magisk for specific MIUI versions (flashing these images will root your device, as if it wasn't more obvious).
(Warning: Flashing the images on different MIUI versions might break things like WiFi and sound, hence be sure that the image version matches the one with your own ROM version. Also, do take a backup of your important data as this might wipe storage)View attachment 4901393View attachment 4901395

I tried it but t only shows me what I already know, that I am not using LTE and it does not show me if phone is capable of a specific band, it also gives me tons of information like tower direction, and location etc, but nothing about hardware capabilities of the p hone.

Try first. Maybe this concrete function doesn't require root. I suppose root is needed only for sophisticated features

Tried it, nothing works without root in this app
I am going to try to root, but since the proedure is nt specific to my device, miui version, and many said it breaks wifi I didnt want to take any risk.
