I think (not sure) that Qt Extended uses the time(zone) cellbroadcast
messages which are broadcasted by some operators. In Germany for
example nobody sends these so the framework looks up the country code
of the GSM cell we're logged in and changes the timezone according to
the zone this country belongs to. This is
problematic/inaccurate/annoying for countries that span different
timezones like the USA, Russia, Australia.
