Every cell phone I've ever had figures out the timezone by itself in the US and in every country in Europe and Asia I've been to.
It used to be basically automatic (automagic?) with CDMA; the local tz offset from UTC, plus the correction offset for GPS time (which the basestations had directly) to UTC was included in messages on the sync channel. 3G and LTE use different mechanisms, as I described.

I'm pretty sure you have to set the time zone that is displayed. It does not change based on location. Although one col writ an app that would do that. There are MANY clock apps some show multiple time zones. Interannly the phone uses GMT (offset zero)
