Does installing oxygen (from hydrogen) change the bands that device operates on?

I want to get an Op2 but don't wanna wait to be given an invite so I was looking at getting the Chinese version. However, it does not operate on the same bands as the north american. I read something that said that the os changes the bands and not the device its self.
"The general feeling in the OnePlus community is that the hardware on both phones is exactly the same and only the OS changes what bands and frequencies the phone uses." -

So does this mean we can just install oxygen on the Chinese version and you will have coverage in North america? It seems hard for that to be the case because the north american version and the EU/asia version both use oxygen correct? Yet if you look at the difference between the eu/asia, north american and chinese versions. You will you see that there are differences in the bands that the eu/asia model use and the northamerican model use.
